I like the look and I assume you kept the stock shocks. Is the ride OK or did the Hotchkis Stage 1 create a harsh ride? I ask because I do a lot of city driving.

+1 to that....I'll post some pics when I get my car cleaned. (It's just been too damn cold in Missouri) I also got the sportlines and love them.

Question though, I was going to put spacers on the car...but it looks like in order for me to do that I will have to get a smaller diameter tire or else the tire will rub. (I'm running stock tire size 225/45 F 245/45 R)

i had sportlines with 25mm spacers, no fender rolling, NO RUBBING

then got 30mm spacers and rolled fenders just incase, still NO RUBBING...

sportlines are great, get them, dont worry about rubbing...
