I actually like this look. looks beautiful. not to mention Props for the FIRST ever TL-S with bags MADE for the TL. oh and with the touch of a button he can be "some sort of dropped" ahhh the glory of bags.

You realize he is on air and therefore raises the car while driving, right? He doesn't roll around at this height.

Thanks i didnt think the burning black was going to show up nice as well and it is more like gun metal color than a black, so it worked out way better for me.

I actually like to drive that low and plow the little rocks of the road .
I guess not everyone understands the concept, but its all good and as long as your toe is in check you should get some life out of the tire.

Yeah i was a little depressed with the size of the front lip. I do know that the next set of wheels will be way more aggressive. Also 15mm is about 1/2" more i say go more aggressive.
