[SuperProtege5]

[Sveivo]

I don't think it would pass as dropped.

 

[rooster1]

I actually used to think in the same way. But when I lowered (thought not a lot), I noticed that there is barely any gap at all!

So I freaked out!

And, additionally, you need full suspension, not just springs. Everybody needs it, actually.

that's just going to make it worse. What you need is new struts... and taller tires.

Anyone know what these wheels are?

 

[asmo 03 mp5]

not sure on the wheels, but whats on the front of that one-looks like a ivan stewart truck fog light bar. LOL(nana)

 

[bgibb68]

actually that bar isn't a bad idea around some people....like to have one of those on the back

edit: those wheels almost look like some enkeis(spelling??)

 

[808MP5]

looks like he's going off roading

plus i don't think it would help if you hit another car with that thing being so low.... might help with dogs, cats, or small children

 

[bgibb68]

i mean for like parking lots and crap....that's where my bumpers keep getting effed up

 

[slideshow240]

ya they did rub untill I put my stock bumpstops in it wont , msp struts and springs. I have painted headlights the glare in that pic hides it. and no mo' gold wheels, had'em for past two years trying for different look, I broke the drivers tailight and had to replace it, havent painted it yet so I have mis matched lights.
I also have a set of mazda6 17" I was gonna use for winter, but there 60mm offset, do they really fit.

dude...slam this b**** now!! like the offset and stretch. lower it about 3 inches ha ha
