I don't know how well your suspension will take bumps on the road.... but it will be very interesting...... your ride should be stiff as hell..... and you can out corner alot of cars on the road for shure

It's NOT lower enough....u should drop another 1.5 or 2 inches....then it will look great.....

BTW.....in your car the height,your OEM rims look SUCKS.....

and i don't think its mean.......its stupid and ugly....

i bet you can't even turn hard.......

And to think that I have problems bottoming out and scraping at stock height. I'd hate to drive that car on the roads that I have to drive on everyday.

Other than practicality and the rims, looks good!

thanks for da comments guyz... but yah car_lost is right... its not for daily driving... i can actually slam it to where my lips on the ground... i lifted it up a bit... but as for the ride... the ride seems pretty good to me imo... relatively smooth compared to sleeve coils... thanks again...

a lowered car on stock rims looks way better than a non lowered car on bad ass 18's or 19's. lowering a car makes it so hot and props for being that low.

looks good, but you crazy!!

how are the road conditions in hawaii? last time i visited there, it was full of nasty cracks and holes on the road.. then again its probably different from milinini or whatever and waikiki area..

i hate the roads here in jersey/nyc.. i bottom out every single day and im riding on stock height with stock rims.. the most i'll do is drop it an inch and a half.. but it wont look like much of a difference..
