it feels great! the metal to concrete on every bump I go over, the loud road noise from the beefiness of the tires, the anticipation of scratching your rims on bumps on the freeway at high speeds... it's awesome ha

ya Jeremy threw me a couple of tips but like everyone said, angle, angle, angle. Just this time, I'll have to angle with straight wheels or it's buckle time. I guess it's inevitable to bottom out or even teeter totter everywhere you go, but I'm already thinking of a solution for that... =D

haha right on man, I got it from here

Wheels: F - 17x10 +25 and R - 18x10 +25. Tires: F - 215/40 and R - 225/35

Im thinking of getting 215/35 for my fronts but not anytime soon (still trying to learn about this flush factor). Tonight, me and a couple of buddies took of my rear spoiler so its way cleaner. They also talked me out of a future plan, but hopefully it was for the good... "secret" ;p

So my me and my buddies took out my rear spoiler a couple days ago. Took us longer than we should've... made a couple of minor dents from the inside but all in all it looks way cleaner. I was also told not to put up another spoiler to keep it clean so we'll see how that goes...

I also readjusted my coils to make the fender to wheel gap the same on each side. Cleanliness wins!

Then I tried doing something that may prevent scratching up/making noise on my down pipe when I bottom out... If you need an explanation just ask haha

... after that I got an alignment my camber is currently F: -3 R: -4, then checked how the "noise prevention" held up ...

@ Hector - I got my alignment at city tire service in South Gate. It was 120 bux and to be honest I don't recommend them. I just failed to call 2 weeks ahead for WestEnd and I needed to start driving asap.

@Spoony - thanx a lot man, means a lot coming from someone who's been featured.

@Young - seriously same here, I thought it would take a couple months to do it. Which bumper should I have kept?

I still got quite much to do. I'll keep updating what I do next to the car. Later on today, I'll be installing a lip. Pics will come with it.
