Mexi-flush! I wouldn't drop any more than Aspec springs with the wheels sticking past the fenders. Aspecs will give you 0.75" drop. The other option is H&Rs which give 1.4", but you'll hit your tires.

H&Rs run $215. Aspecs come as a complete coilover kit, but many have swapped the springs for H&Rs, leaving Aspec springs available at an unregulated price. Of course, that doesn't include installation which is generally ~$200.

What's your budget looking like, Manny?
If you can swing it and care, I'd suggest going for full on coilovers...then you can adjust to what you like. Even out front and back etc...
Don't forget when you go lower you'll end up getting more camber which will tuck the tire in at the top more. Will look great...you could even get a camber kit to ADD some negative camber to clear fender...roll fenders etc.
Trust me, we ALL start off saying we don't want to roll fenders and get too intense, but stick around long enough and it'll get the best of you. Once you see your car sitting low and flush you probably won't be able to settle for less. It's a sickness for a reason.

No worries. Coilovers will set you back $1.6k before install and there is no camber kit for the RL.

Will you post more from the side? I was in love with those wheels until I saw them on an '05. They didn't look right, but that looks surprisingly good.

Still looks good. I'm a bit confused, but maybe it's just a great color match.

After owning my trafficstar vz reps by s.a.m wheels, I have decided to change up for something wider and a completely different style.
Here is what we had before:
20x8.5 et32 front (225/35/20)
20x9.5 et35 rear (255/30/20)
This is what I have now:
Setup now is:
Ispiri ISR6 Satin Silver / Machined Face
20x10 et37 front (255/30/20) Toyo T1S
20x10 et33 rear (255/30/20) Dunlop sp sportmax
What do you think?
Have heard that 20x10 wouldn't fit because of rubbing. This does not rub at all and I can get full lock on the steering. Front fenders stock, rear fenders rolled/no pull.
Selling my old wheels if anyone is interested with 2 brand new rear tyres and 2 front tyres at 5mm.

Can somebody please make either oo7, Heavy or myself a moderator in this forum? We need somebody that frequents the board and isn't afraid to take care of spam posts.

In Japan they're about $800 US, but after shipping within Japan, and shipping to US, the cost can be around ~$1k-1.2k depending how/who you get them through
