I am running 17x9 RPF1 +35 wrapped in Dunlop Direzzas Z1 Star Spec 245/45/17. The only con I can think of about the Buddy Club Racing Spec is the height adjustment. Right now I am running on the lowest height and it is only about a full inch drop. I would like to run at least a quarter of an inch lower. Here is a crappy picture I took on my phone.
Looks great! Did you adjust just the spring perch? or the lower mount also? You should be able to get it lower if you adjust the lower mount and in conjunction with the spring perch. If that's still not enough for you, you can remove one of the threaded red lock nuts which will get you about another 1/4". If you lower it more though, it will adjust your toe again. It shouldn't affect your toe THAT much though, it wouldn't be enough to justify a new alignment. Glad you like the coilovers!
