I dont think its that bad at all.....i was worried when i first got my wheels about it, but its no where near as bad as everyone made it sound like it was gonna be. More road noise and you feel the bumps in the road more, but not to bad.

Those both look very sweet. I think the drop looks fine. I'm not a fan of the slammed look, and with going too low you lose alot of driveability.

I think the silver one needs some 03 taillights though.

I just wish i had like maybe a inch more drop in the back w/the 19's......and yeah the 03 Tails would look good on them

Thanks for all the comments guys. Surprisingly the ride is still good, not too much difference at all. The biggest thing I have noticed is road noise (which still isn't bad) and a little more road vibration through the steering wheel. You feel the bigger bumps a bit more but its still no big deal. Probably won't even notice the difference in a week.

Both of the rides look super *HOT*, I am considering some 19 inch wheels myself.

So what's the offset and tire size on those wheels?

cool, so with the 50 offset you will be able to tuck them without rolling your fenders or rubbing in the front if you lower it more?
