Everyone should relax with the drop. I installed GF210s on my car last weekend and regretted teh drive home. The sound of hitting my brand new exhaust on my 3300mile Z while going up my garage ramp rang threw my head for like 6 hours.

the second pic is pretty sweet..

nice car too those wheels always look nice..
i know others have already told u about ur ride height, but the car would look killer with a 1.2 inch drop!

o and a pet peeve of mine are those retarded as$ antennas..they make ur car look like a giant rc car..go jack some gay high school kids s2k antenna haha
Thanks. As for the drop I doubt I will drop it anymore and as the the antenna I already get terrible reception in it anyway lol. I think I need to get the ipod dock.

Looks good to me, but I'm in the camp that thinks slammed cars with retarded camber just look dumb.

What color are the rotas?

The lighting is weird there was barely any sunlight. I remember your picture with the hyper blacks they do look brighter but its just the light I guess. your picture is what really inspired me to get them lol.

Cool, yeah they're nice wheels and look sick on your car. I was surprised at actually how bright mine were in person because they looked so much darker in many people's pics. I double checked the label on the boxes and it says hyperblack. I guess the finish is just sensitive to changes in lighting.

When I get my car back I'm actually planning on throwing 15mm spacers on them and rolling my fenders for some crazy offsets. Coilovers are going in soon too. Will post more pics when that happens...

Yes I was thinking about some spacers but they sit pretty flush already.

Man, that sucks. Maybe enterring at an extreme angle would help this out.

To the OP, how has ride quality changed since the new setup?
