Phantom Black X on Rays 57Xtreme

This guy does really great work! These are obviously smaller size, and I chopped my plate out of one of them, but just an example of his photography. Definitely look him up if you're in the SE and want quality shots of your car.

A great looking car Noize. I can tell you are very careful with your choice of parts for fit and finish. After seeing that wheels on your car, I wanted one, but still undecided between that and the Gram Light 57C6. No one here seems to have them yet except pictures from the internet.

How much are you lower with your Ohlins, around .5 inch?

Thanks guys!

It might not look it, but the car is closer to .8" lower than stock. I wanted to stay high enough to not need a roll center kit, not scrape on Tennesee's notoriously tall parking lot and driveway entries, and not have to roll the fenders (fingers crossed, haven't scraped yet with aggressive street driving).

It's all about function over form, and although I'm getting heckled for how high she sits, it's ok. I really value a little extra ground clearance when it's needed.

Side shot to better show the wheel gap. There's a three finger gap in the front, and two in the rear.
This is one of my crappy pics, not the photographer in the first post.

Actually, I totally agree with you, and that is why I ask, since lowering at your level does not look bad at all to me. In Northern VA, most of the roads are terrible. Speed bumps are everywhere in my neck of the woods.

I drive through half**s paves everyday. Who on earth paves half of a lane and call it done?

I look forward to your next mods...

Tint has never been my thing. My friend Chuck has been razzing me about tint as well!
