yea -- i could have gotten them from better angles... like i said, the "Before pic" isn't as bad as it looked. but i can tell a noticeable difference in the drop with the lowering springs now.

Yeah it's kinda hard to tell. I can see a difference just a tad...but with the blk on blk it's hard to tell. You should maybe get a close up pic of one of the wheelwells and the tire? Maybe we can see it a lil better. smile.gif Looks good though. =) How's the ride on them? Are you on aftermarket shocks as well??

I live in the Hyde-park area.
What size of tires you have?
Let me guess... 205/60R14?
I autocross my car, so I'm looking for some nice 14" or 15" and I like how they look the Enkei on yours

you really do need some wider wheels. Don't get me wrong though, that's a great looking car.
