I see you are the expert here. Thank you. No one is trying to impress anyone. My car is my car for me only. I value ur stupid comment though. Keep it coming.

Why is it like that? It looks really awful. I'll be honest, you're prob not feeling the look due to the eyesore of those rims. I've seen plenty lowered less look way decent with stock colored wheels.

I was going for stock/custom and quality with the powder coated red rims and mirrors. Thanks for the love.

You will want an alignment especially after lowering the rear of the car. The type of suspension is affected quite a bit by lowering.

Cool, just don't drive the car or you'll start blowing axles and stuff. Get bags if you want to go lower and be functional.

I see you hard headed and new to the car scene. I'm not even going to bother with you.

Thank you for your gracious remark. Your input is much valued even though it didn't pertain to the question I asked.

I think your car would look way better with some spacers.

I wouldn't listen to people talking shit and not answer your question. If you want to go lower do it but just make sure there will be no scrapping or rubbing due to it being lowered but I would definitely get an alignment after lowering it. Good luck with your car and enjoy what it was made for...to be tuned !!!
