Wow very nice. They look amazing to be honest. A photo session under a nice sunny day would be perfect

Dude, the wheels look bada$$ now stock, it completey looks even Sweeter when you lower it! It will look more pronounced. even if you don't want too much of a drop go with the ACS springs for a subtle drop but even improve the handling as well

Plan is to lower it but scared I will rub when family is driving with me.
We like taking road trips to surrounding states I would hate to rub when we drive. Getting new tires every couple of months not fun.

If you're on springs you will be fine. It's when running coilovers and sitting really low is when you run into rubbing issues.

He just did the ACS upgrade:

Very nice, just needs a drop.
Should be fine if you only lower it in new springs.

looks good, no i'm thinking i may need to get some spacers up front

also i have ACS springs and i haul my family with the car, and i get NO RUBBING. ride quality is close to stock just a bit firmer ALOT LESS BODY ROLL.

and the drop is just perfect for my taste.

So if you go ACS Springs you should be fine!

trust me you get what you pay for. I was skeptical about these as well for the price. but i couldn't be more happy.

a week after i installed them my wife and i drove from San jose to SF (1 hr each way) for a friends birthday party, and she didn't notice any difference in the ride what so ever.

Good to know because I said before I like driving my car to long trips.
I learn with N63 engine I have to bring some extra oil in the trunk because it burns oil.
