Decided to go with RL's.. They fit my budget and I drive like 6 miles to work and 5 miles to school daily. So for a DD I don't think they will be bad, plus I haven't heard bad things about them... yet. Just looking to get rid of that gap!

Probably wont get shipped till tomorrow so next week I'm assuming. I'm just going as low as possible with out any rolling. Probably sounds stupid but I just don't feel like messing with that.

Nope, they are in my rota boxes. Just a set of old ADR's

fenders completely rolled in back, had them done by a shop
and slightly in the front, took a bat and barely did some adjustments. my fender lining is completely pulled though. as far as rubbing, only when i take corners fast or when i hit a big bump too fast.

im trying to decide whether i should get a lip kit, either five axis(i like the front lip), rs1(not a big fan of the slits on the front lip), or the factory one. any opinions??

and no my coils are not spun all the way down, a few more threads in the front and a few in back also

Haha get them sold, contribute to your coilover expense. Nah i understand that you dont want to mess with your car like that. Its alot of work and fenders could get messed up down the road, plus when you sell the car the stock wheels are going to look so sunked in lol.

I ordered touch up paint anyway.. if Wheeldude ever gets it shipped. Coils are on their way too so get off it
Your touch-up paint was shipped out!

How much work is needed to run the DPTs 18x9.5 et:25f/20r? I will be on RaceLand Coilovers as well only wanting it hovering over the tire. Stretched on 225/40/R18 Falken Tires as well
