Pics with New Rims!
Well, though I know all the 2nd gens will think I'm biting their steez, I got the 18x7.5 Axis mod sevens. The front of the pic is blurry, and I'm not sure why - but the car still looks way better than before!

wheels look awesome. in my opinion, i think you should get the mud guards painted, especially since your car is white...my car is silver and i painted them.
lastly, the pic is blurry just at front probably from finger prints or something on the lense.

i'm not sure why its blurry in the front - it was raining a little bit during the pic. Good idea on the 'mudflaps' 
I probably will paint them before winter hits. I'm still getting used to the rough ride of the coilovers compared to my old H&R sport springs. Its really rough on bad roads, but reasonable if the road is flat. We'll see if I get tired of the harsh ride in a few months...if so I'll be putting my H&Rs back on. Obviously, it looks better with the lower drop. Here's a pic after the wheels were put on, with the H&R Sports. You'll see why I decided to put on the coilovers...

Pete...Looks good. I'm bringing my crew with me up to Nopi in September, so I'll get to see your ride in person. We'll party it up for sure.
Just becareful with a drop that low or you'll end up like me and have a busted exhaust canister.
But then again that might give you incentive to get an aftermarket if you break your stock one.

You'll be surprised at how much ground clearance I still have. I had to off-road a little for a wedding this weekend and had no problem. I can still clear parking curbs as well 
Let's just cross our fingers and hope my camber isn't off by too much

yeah, its probably the lip that makes them look smaller, but also that I'm running 40 series tires. I'm glad I didn't go with 19s though...that's just not practical for me livin' in downtown ATL having 215/35/19s.
AtlCl, when I get home I'll upload the pics...we'll have to take some more with our cars lined up together. Spy vs. Spy, CL style
