Spacers and a roll, then it would be even better. You will love it even more.

Did you change your shocks/struts or a arms camber/toe arms?

I plan on getting spacers next. What brand would you recommend? And I only changed the stock shocks out for stock shocks with less mileage on them. Only temporary though until I save up for new shocks or get struts. But as far as camber arms and control arms I did not. Figured ill just run my tires until there's nothing left on them then just get new wheels and tires and camber kits. These shocks should hold out long enough for me to save.

I like it,looks great.

On a side note though. You can't expect to do things to your car,ask for opinions and then say no negativity. If you're going to post pics on mods you have to expect some negative comments.

Thank you I agree! Perfect drop.

And as for a review,
The springs are amazing. I love them. They are some what more stiff than stock but not unbearable. You feel a lot more bumps and such, so the ride is bumpy. But to be honest I like it. Lol I feel cool. Hah As far as performance I haven't really tested them yet, but from what I feel it seems to hand on turns much better than stock. Like comparing day and night almost. Ill let you know when I do some more driving with them. All in all I am extremely satisfied with the springs all around. And te camber isn't bad at all. It's noticeable by eye but I don't have any numbers on as to how much they made me negative. Rears much more camber than the front, front has very slight camber. I love the way the camber looks though. It's the perfect amount. It doesn't look like I'm riding on my inner rim. Lol

I use Z1Motorsports spacers, They have them so the studs are pre pressed, and the hub extends passed the spacer so the wheel will fit perfectly on the spacers without the need for Hub centric rings. (unless you get aftermarket wheels with a bigger Hub.) there are many others but these are the best bang for buck I have found. and they go from 5mm-30mm. Not to mention great customer service.
