Damn off the hook! One of the classiest looking wheels out there, period. The design is so simple, yet so elegant. May I ask you how much just the wheels cost you? Or is that top notch secret stuff? hehh

sweet get em and install em so we can see what the extra 2" looks like

Since people wereinterested in the replacement springs, here are the part #s:
Front SJ090-01200
Rear SH060-01200
They are shorter and stiffer, about 2kg stiffer. Gives about 2 more inches for the drop. I don't know the price for the whole set, but will find out soon. I contacted a local auto shop who is an official vendor for Tein. I will be purchasing them in the next month. I will take pics of the full drop.

Yeah I think I'm gonna order them but dont know if I'll install them cause then I'll slam the car further and really f**k it up. Maybe I'll just slam it for shows..Dont know yet, but its a good price for them , not too bad.
