yes it is a little high for my taste also..I will be going to a lower pro tire once the tires are low on tread and then i will drop it because the tires rub a little....Durtybird(tgo member) photoshopped me this pic...I wasnt going to drop it until i saw this pic.Anyways,thanks for the compliments.

Yeah, I think your car is begging to be lowered. It looks good as is, too.

When the first pic showed up I went, that's the before pic??

In a lot of ways I think the before pic looks better... looks black instead of purple, and I like how the wheels tuck a lil.

Lowering would def. help

Yeah i know,there will be a drop in the near future....The paint started to peel on the roof and i started to chip at the rear bumper....The 16s did tuck but there was an ugly gap from between the tire and the fender....In both pics,it looks higher/lower than it really is because the suspension is flexing...I dont have a flat driveway...its slanted thus making it look higher than it really is...Ill get some pics on flat ground
