I'm in no way associated with RCE. They are, however, local to me and I happened to see the picture in my Facebook feed.

RCE makes fantastic products. I'm amazed they're already making springs for the BRZ. I have a set of their Black springs on my STI and I love them. Looks like I might be getting a another set of coils from RCE

Can we get a 3/4 shot from the front with the wheels straight? I'd like to see where the wheels sit in the fenders now.

I'm not even thinking about drops until there are roll-center correction kits.
