I don't know about all that-- your car is pretty damned hot. Lower it a bit more & it'll really pop.

Thanks man. I want to lower it more but I have this damn driveway at home to contend with:

(By the way, those are my previous wheels gloss black LE28n's, in the spirit of this thread)

Hopefully this year I will be making some progress with the homeowner's association to rip up and flatten out the end of the driveway. As it is now I can only back in, and as you can see I am cutting it dammmmn close. If I pull out at anything over 1mph I ram the front lip into the pavement. My goal is to be able to pull into the driveway going forward (too much to ask, right )

I was going to say sry110, your ride looks just as good as cow's. Only that his is slight lower than yours (totally understand why though). Other than the center caps, the wheels/tires look identical. Not sure if you are running the same rubber as cow is, but I think your ride is smokin' too! Great work! Both of ya's!

^^ Thanks man. Once I get the sidewalk flattened and driveway re-graded (if needed), I'm hoping to do coilovers or shocks+springs (thinking maybe Eibach sportline) and front/rear camber arms.

Thanks for the kind words, guys. sry110, I feel your pain on driveways & the like-- our roads are atrocious. I'd like to punch our DOTD chairman in the face.

dmemenza, thanks for the kind words-- I agree with everything you said regarding the other car.

Thought I would stoke the CE28n flame a bit with some pics from this summer:

Current setup is CE28n Formula Silver 19x9.5 +22 front and 19x10.5 +22 rear with 255/35/19 front, 285/35/19 rear. Coming soon is 5mm (or maybe 7mm?) spacers in the rear.

Yeah they're rolled in the back now, but not sure how tight. I'm going with 5mm most likely now, but installing longer studs so I can go wider later. No plans for the fronts yet

Sick man. Any issues running 285/35 on your +12 rears? i.e. was rolling your fenders sufficient, or did you have to pull them too? Also what kind of rear camber are you set at? (doesn't look too negative to me...)

I've got the rears rolled flat and very slightly pulled, less than an eighth of an inch. My camber was set as close to stock as I could possibly get it. No rubbing issues even under hard, off-camber turns at the track.

I think it's time for you to have another media share thread with your SBC and some of the more recent stuff.
