Patrick. Posted April 1, 2006 Report Share Posted April 1, 2006 that's a great ride height! did you just put them in? if so, they may even settle a bit and drop a little more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SkyWriter Posted April 1, 2006 Author Report Share Posted April 1, 2006 thanks all! yes, the trim is tired looking; i have a special grey die (IPD) to restore it. i had to munge with the brightness/contrast to make the picture viewable (it was a twilight shot, just got it back last evening ) the rim's look way better than that; but i do plan to get some summer rims and make these the winter ones. the springs have been in for a couple of weeks, but the car has lived on the lift so there has been no compression acting on it; except for about 24 hours a 2 weeks ago. it has dropped dramatically since before the install. no rubbing, feels great! i don't think 18 inches will fit; thought i would like wider.

SkyWriter Posted April 1, 2006 Author Report Share Posted April 1, 2006 good call. there is a set of peg's down at the shop, i've been asking after. i would like to get the big "R" break look too, if they fit inside the 17 inch arrakis for winter. but i don't really want to go too far down in sidewall size to fit 'em. i'll give it a week or two to settle then measure it up. the peg's need some refinishing anyway.i was thinking a spoiler too. a chap on VS found these:http://www.spoilerdepot.com/Catalog.asp?A=...ModelTemp=&idB=not bad if prepainted.by the way: maybe tomorrow i can get a better picture, it's been poor weather all day.
