I've had the springs on for about 6 months. Once I got my allignment done and they settled the ride quality was great only downfall would be going over speed bumps but a sacrifice worth making to eliminate the major wheel gap. On the outside it didn't look like much of a drop but once I sat inside it def felt lowered. As for tire wear I really don't know normal wear I guess?

You will need a shop that does non OEM parts. Many big name shops, even some small will not add non OEM parts because of liability. I had mine done at a reputable tire shop for $250. I run larger tires and do not rub over speed bumps. I'm sure the pizza cutter tires have much more clearance. Someone with the oem wheel will have to chime in about spacers and inner wall clearance. Cocksport offers H&R wheel adapters for the stock tire (well any tire) that make them flush.Looks really good w/factory wheels!
Are you rubbing over speed bumps? Where exactly the front inner wall?
What size of spacers are you thinking for front and rear?
By the way, how much and where did you do the install for the springs?
I would imagine redline is referring to the ride quality over speed bumps being a bit harsh with the drop. There's no way I hell he's going to be bottoming out on bumps with a 1.75" rear drop.

I hit the bumps in my neighborhood at no more than 15. I would feel ok with about 20 when stock. With my escape I hit it at 30 and it wasn't a problem lol.

H&R drop[/URL] Hmm I think the matte plastidip coating and the shining wheels clash horribly.
