Oh!!! Drop is perfect! Just about right. Not to low, not too high. It reminds me of ish's old vert cuz of Xenon lip. 2 things though. You need to find aftermarket valances. Can you take out that ding on driver's side quarter panel? PDR will do the job.

IMO... it needs to be dropped about 1inch more

but you probably have it at that height b/c of the lip and ****ty roads...

looks good

You have to remove fender liners to do that unless tires touch them. I wanted to keep mine, so my car looks like his.

Hey thanks guys for the comments. yeah I think i need to drop it maybe 1/2" to 1" to have the right stance but I am already scraping the lip when getting in and out of driveways and parking lots. Also honolulu roads suck. Also I wanna keep those liners. Its only dropped on Tien springs right now so still waiting on coils.

The wheels are from Wheelmax.com.

A.Z.A. Z01

F: 18x8.5 +35R: 18x9.5 +30

I saw these wheels on a GTO parked. and I looked them up. offsets are just about flush w/ s13 wheel wells. although once I lower it a bit more the fenders are going to be rolled and pulled w/ 15mm spacers on rear 10mm in fronts. Ill post new pics once Im done.
