Thanks!

I like them, I've had them installed for about a year. My car no longer makes the swoosh sound like when it first did when I got them but during the cold nights the car pulls much harder. During the day it's not as noticeable.

Not sure, dealer did a bunch of tests and couldn't find anything wrong with the car. Car only makes the sound occasionally at highway speeds when shifting. I used to be able to produce the sound by revving if I wanted to.

Have you thought about putting in spacers on the front wheels?

Thanks! And yeah, I currently have 10mm in the front. I had 15mm's but it would rub with a passenger.

Love the skirt extensions! How do you like them compared to the 3d style? I'll be ordering a set soon and deciding on these or the 3D's
