New Pics: Anthracite/19's/Comptech's
Here are some new pics I took this weekend. Someone here suggested I remove the splash gaurds. I had been thinking about doing it anyway so I did. I think I like it better this way. Enjoy!

This might be the hottest TL ive seen on ths site and (to date) i love how the color in the rim compliments the anthracite ..i originally wanted a black TL so i could do the black rim with chrome lip setup .....
but ended up going with the Abyss blue pearl and camel
again nice job man....

Pretty sharp pics, BTW.

A lower offset could acheive the big lip look.. An A-Spec kit would set it off..

What do you think of those tires? Can you compare the ride comfort of your setup to stock and to other cars? 19s just seem so extreme but it looks great on your car. I am coming from RX-7 land, but I don't want something that takes away all the ride comfort of the car.

Compared to other cars I've owned that were lowered, 1 Accord and 3 Audi A6's, this car is not as comfortable as the A6's but much more comfortable than the Accord. Keep in mind that the A6's stock suspensions were alot softer than the TL's to begin with.
