One Picture Type-S Lowered

I went out to take some pictures after lowering the car the day before but it started raining so I only got one shot. I will take some more this week.

Car is lowered on Function and Form coil overs. The front could go lower with no problems the rear not so much as it rubs every now and then against the 275 tire on some dips. I rolled the fenders so at least it's not cutting the tires. To compensate for some of the crappy Houston roads we ride around on the ride height will probably remain where it's at.

Thanks man. They are 19x9 and 19x10 I don't remember the offsets at the moment. They are fun to clean I'm used to it though as I have two sets of CCW Classics for my Firebird that I always have to clean and one of those sets are polished lol.

Wow man looks really slick, front could be about half an inch lower, and why not dial in some negative camber in the rear and go even lower there too!

I love it! How's the F&F suspension treating you so far? I'm considering that set-up for when I buy coilovers.

Nice! It looks good! May I ask you what size tires are you running in the front with the 19x9?

Thanks guys appreciate the comments. The ride feels pretty good with the coil overs. Haven't driven it much yet since lowering it still needs to be aligned.

Tires are Invos. Fronts are 245-35-19 rears are 275-30-19.

Type-S Quick Photoshoot

Alright guys I rolled the fenders some more this afternoon and gave the recently installed coil overs another look to make sure everything was good. No more rubbing so I will probably go a tad bit lower all around. I then washed up the car real quick and went to a spot by my house for a quick photoshoot.

It was pretty close to 8pm when I was taking pictures so I didn't have much time to reposition the car much so I did what I could with the time I had. I hope you guys like the pics!

The only thing that I can't get over is the fogs in the bumper. They look out of place IMO but everything else is on point.

I freaking love your car man! The rims look sick. Everything looks great, I even love the flow of the RJ front with the A-Spec kit! Great car!

Liking it. I don't like the RJ kit but on SSM/ASM looks good. And the car with those wheels looks clean. Fogs seem a little out of place, or just too big or something is not right there but still hot looking car.

FAIL for quoting the whole post.



OP the TL-S is looking good! Those pictures turned out amazing

Any other plans?
