got my coilovers on at long last. 4" drop with the standard shocks. they are almost fully compressed but feck it if they go, they go.

I'm also thinking of changing the alloys. they are 17" at the moment but dont seem to suit the car. I was quoted $350 to change them and keep my own tyres for these. So do I change em or keep the cash for something else. (ICE most likely at the moment)

Some coilovers are advertised as having the ability to adjust your car from 0-4" of height. This doesn't mean that zero is at stock height. Try raising your coilovers all the way up, and I bet the car will sit higher than stock. What kind of coilovers are they?

Regardless, the car looks good. I'd definitely keep your current wheels though. smile.gif
