 I don't have any pics yet of my new rims, but with Tein S-Techs and 404a lip kit I'm about 4 1/4 " off the ground in the front. This post has been edited by Jaws4God: Oct 23, 2006 - 9:08 AM -------------------- ~Daniel~ No Longer Celica Owner.. moved on to a 03 WRX-EJ207

 C-One front + Tien S Tech springs. It was low. But you learn to deal with it. --------------------  |

The stock bumpers are easily the "best" bumper to have if you are lowered. Chances of rubbing anything is near null with a 1.5" drop. And if you do rub, its plastic...nothing to crack or destoy.
