im assuming...

18" SSR Professor SP1s?... that step lip makes them look like 17s (?) anyhow - GREAT CHOICE with the wheels

quick question -- why does your left sideskirt sag a little bit towards the middle? (or is that just the picture)

The kit is a TL OEM lip with the versus side skirts and rear skirt.

Yes your right they are SP1s but they are made by another company called SSW(speed star wheel). Its not forged like the real SSR but rather casted.

The skirt isn't sagging...its just the lighting.

did you say those were 15" rims?

and i'm not sure the kit mismatch goes well...front is much lower than sides...looks odd to me, but to each his own.

Looks absolutely great. I love the combo of front and side pieces. Did you have to modify the TL bits to fit?

it was sarcasm. i know what a step lip is, but the combination of that plus the tires makes the rims look tiny...like 15s

and yes, i do hate bras. very much so.

Why does it look like the front lip is bending? thy should have sanded the lip down a lil to make it and even plain with the ground.

its bending because it was a direct bolt on to the Cl front bumper. There was only a little modification done to the lip to make it fit as snug as possible. The only way to make it flush was to add fiberglass to the lip which i didn't want to do because it would weaken the lip at those points according to my body shop. I could have also molded the lip but I didn't want to make anything permanent on the bumper.

Understandable, but the bodyshop could of used fiberglass and then reinforce those points where it would make the kit weak.

SSR as a company went bankrupt but I believe a company called SSW(Speed Star Wheel) is still making them for TireRack.

SSR was bought out by Tanabe so they might re-release these again.
