Money? hehehehehehehe, You'd probably flip a chair or something if you knew how much I paid for those BBS's.

I will be selling the OZ's pretty soon, got 5 of them, those should shoot off of the WRX forums if they dont leave from this forum.

I installed my DF210's today during the day., remembered just how easy it is when you dont have to worry about drive axles falling apart (damn hondas)

Ill probably take a few pictures with teh OZ's on, but the BBS's go on on monday, ready for that one.

I Agree,

I also added the Tanabe Strut Tower Bar.

So I'm not sure if the handling change was solely on the springs or not, I'm finding a nicer casual ride, but still getting a nice, stiff turn in similar to what i got from the TRDs.

damn that's a good price. i can't tell you what i paid for mine.
Mine were 16's though haha, retail at 203 a piece. I almost went for some SSR's but I couldnt really justify type-C's, and I dont think I would have been able to pull off teh VIP look.

Ok, went to the movies today with the wife and took my car...First time driving this with a passenger since the DF spring install...Now my wife is not big by any means (125 lbs) but man I rubbed quite a bit on the right rear...Looks like I will be grinding some of the inner fender down and repainting so I can get rid of the rub...I can't believe how LOW the DF's are, I LOVE EM'...

our cars have a solid rear beam axle there shouldnt be any camber change as there car goes up and down ... only difference should be a toe change just like the first gen xb/xa and corolla.... so the only option for camber would be plates... so if randode can make some camber adjustment ine the plates it would be sick
