I like the chrome lugz. Black wheels aren't my favorite but they look good with your color. Way to be working on it though, lately I haven't had much time

I think dropping it is a good idea, but it has an aftermarket Mazda speed bumper which is a little lower, and i really dont want to scrap that up, u guys think it will scrap the ground at all if i drop it?

Thanks for the responses!!

It depends where you drive. As an example I have a stock height car and I scraped the bumper going into a parking garage today, so if I was dropped it would have probably been bad lol. Also around where I live there are tons of speed bumps that I have to drive over, so for me its not a good idea to drop the car at all.

Spacers

Yea, i scraped once going up a little hill so I think thats out of the ?. What about spacers? would u recommend those? Do they throw anything off. I have stock wheels, and I would like them to stick out a little further.. Is there a size that you would recommend? Does anyone have spacers? Pics would be awesome!!

Thanks guys!!
