Default Teaser (pictures now)

Tire delivery on tuesday and currently the kw's have 1" thread left all around. Lower then I have ever gone. And for everyone bitching about kw's not going low enough, you def have the wrong car

Stay tuned for a HELL of a strech and drop.

i noticed a comment about "thread" and one about "tread" so, thread refering to coilover height(can't wait to see that drop with the stretched rubber, your car will look sick). db not sure where you were going with the dunlop "tread" comment. not sure if you guys were reffering to the same thing?

Girlfriend had family issues and I need her for the kit, so that was put on hold untill prob next week. Kyle and I might be able to rush and paint it to get it on, but thats a long stretch. FMIC wont be here, laptop broke and it was almost 250$ to fix that, I could get it, but I plan on buying.... ready, a grill at wf... So thats higher on my todo list.

Tires are 205/45/17 and 215/45/17 on (inner measurements) 8.5 and 9.5" wide... Closer to 9 and 10... It will be one hell fo a stretch. I'm about to go crank the kw's down the last inch all around and see what im looking at.. I cant get 4 fingers between my frame and the ground... Pics later, mabye.
