This is amazing. Possibly the nicest FRS in the states as of right now. Glad someone stateside has properly fitted a RB Kit, any plans on lowering the front more?

Thanks. The car went a little lower after switching from 235-40-18 to 245-35-18. The frame is sitting on the tires when the suspension is all the way to the lowest settings

yeah seems like 35 profiles are the way to go, and even on 35 sidewall my frame always bottoms out in the tire on highways
