Pretty much, while I havent tested it myself with guages I did read on here a while back that it does help some. Most people used a different method to do it, but I kinda like the look of it. Hopefully i get some guages soon though so I can actually test it myself.

whats the deal with the hood, how do you do that. i need a few rx8 pointers on things like that. and does slamming it like that take away some handling or not.

@Wanta
You can't run corners with that much aggro fitment.

@hock
Slamming takes away from positive handling.

Wow great pics


@hock... If you don't cheap out and buy a good set of coilovers handling will not be negatively affected; all depending on how 'slammed' you want to go

Ehh, when you get past a certain point the handling will be negatively effected, regardless of spring rates, damping, etc.

Thanks for all the compliments guys. I plan on getting some 5 or 6mm spacers for the front.

Tires size are 235/40 all around 18 of course. And I havent worked with the corner lights too much yet, It already still rubs some up front so thats stuff to deal with another day. Oh and yes they are 18x9.5 +15.
