Looks good! I just hate how some Pro-Kits look perfect, while others you can barely tell the car is lowered. Either way I wish I had gone with Pro-Kit over Sportlines. My ride is a bit too harsh now.

From reading the article, apparently this car is on Eibach Pro-Kit. Looks great. I'm thinking I'm gonna purchase a Pro-Kit and swap out my Sportlines.


"Other parts added to the stock setup were a performance air filter, an Eibach Spring kit lowering the car by 30mm, a fast road geometry setup and performance friction fast road brake pads. The stock wheels were inner changed with Litchfield Nurburg 18 inch lightweight alloy wheels shod in wider Michelin Supersport tires sizing 225/40/18 all around. The standard size is 215/45/18."

IMO it's a perfect drop with great performance handling- aka the way the car should have been created

Agree. After seeing those pictures I honestly think that's how I want my car height to be. I saw another pic of a car with a 1.5" drop and it just looks too much. I used to think I wanted it super flush with almost no wheel gap, but now that I've had Sportlines for 6+ months I know that's not what I want anymore. I want something more realistic for daily driving that looks natural...not partially slammed.

Installed mine yesterday!! I love them. So glad I didn't go with the sportlines.



Not the best picture. I took this right after getting home from the shop so idk if they will settle some more.
