''Also wanted to ask, would you ruine your shocks if you bought after market springs to lower it a little?''
From what I have read on the board yes. The proper way is to replace the shocks and springs because just the springs will eventually kill oem shocks. |

True but it could be worth doing if you are using as a temporary jobby till you get coils.

Not bad considering no Drop. I think I will go for 19" Once i get some rear from my new run flats. Is there a big change to the ride from 17" to 19" ?

I really don't want to lower the car but the friggin' thing looks like a pre-runner.
I just know that if I lower the car, my wife's going to constantly bottom out going in our driveway. |

Just installed advan rz-df in 19x8.5 +35 front and 19x9.5 +25 rears on conti DW 235/35/19 and 265/30/19. I wanted to confirm NO RUBBING on stock sport suspension, stock fenders. I only have crappy iphone pics in bright sunlight. Bad thing about black wheels-you can't see anything. I'll post better pics later.
