Car slammed and sitting flush *crappy pictures now, but will be updated

I know the staggered flush look might not be everyone's cup of tea, but this is what I've strived for for awhile, but was always too scared/didn't have the funds to do it. So finally got the D2's on and the wheels fitted. I'm just gonna do a custom grille and maybe a rear lip and I'm done. This look is all I've ever wanted since I started in the game back in like 99. Celly pictures do no justice. Will take high res pics tomorrow when the car and rims are cleaned

You'll love em bro

I've got my rears set to full stiff since I seriously have less than a mm clearance without rolling my fenders. I still haven't rubbed though, thank god.

tires are 205/40 up front and 225/40 out back, but look like rubberbands due to the 9 inch width and im tucking up front

edit: ^^ klepto is good

haha thanks man

actually, I was really sad to mount them on the car cuz I spent endless hours detailing em, and it just hurt to see them exposed to the elements But alas, they'll be coming off soon for the wintertime to get another couple month layoff

The car looks tight.

Rims are 18X9?

How is your camber? And why 205/40 on the front?

Any issues?
