**THAT LOOKS VERY NICE!!!

 

what are you lowering on?

 

the stance is very nice

Thanks. It's on Tien H-techs. The drop from stock was 1 1/4". Below is the drop on the stock wheels and tires. The new tires are a half inch larger in diameter so that narrowed the gap another 1/4".

Does it rub? i have the same exact set up as in wheels and tires (mine is 18 x 7 tires are 225/40/18)... also equiping with RBS front lip...

 

Also considering lowering the car, but afraid on my life of cracking the front lip... let me know what you think of the ride quality and rubbing issues :icon_tong

 

it's looks low...but probably because the ground isn't flat :icon_lol:

No rubbing so far and it looks like it won't be a problem. The ride seems to actually be a little more compliant than the OEM wheel and tire combo which I didn't expect going to the shorter and reinforced sidewall of the KDWs.

 

I had an RBS front lip. Cracked and repaired it a couple times before shattering it...fiberglass vs. concrete. I replaced it with the STi lip as it's urethane and should be more durable, though I try to be extra careful now when pulling up to curbs and such.

 

These are evil...

i already have cracks on my lip, pretty visible too... i'm so reckless...

 

I saw the hairline cracks...did you bump into something slowly/lightly? or was it from the lip getting pushed up when you drove up an incline or something?...it's not that bad, it's still very intact looking, just a crappy feeling inside...:(

In Taiwan now...:spin:

The roads down here though...they have rediculously steep entrances and exits for almost all places with huge dips as you exit...

Hence, why i'm not lowered...
