those are what you should look for if youre on a budget.

stance, bc, etc etc are all the same, you can spend the same money on a better handling/riding product.

Okay so the BRZ looks "cool" completely stock. I questioned my decision to do wheels/suspension first but I am so glad I did. Every time I park I look at it and think, damn that is aggressive. Looks more like an actual sports car. Now I just want to focus on making this thing look and handle awesome and do the whole power thing later.

I know these pictures are absolute crap I'm just excited. Gonna take some good pictures this weekend before autox Saturday.

What are your mods and tires specs ? I want to put wider tires/wheel but nobody seemed sure about the max you could run without any issue at atock suspension. ...

I wish I could help you out but I went straight to coilovers. I tried putting a wheel on with stock suspension and the tire hit the spring before it even made it halfway on the stud. My wheels are 18x9.5 +40 with a 265/35 tire. Not sure what stock suspension could fit.

Well I dont mind a 1 inch drop, I just want to stay static on a decent height with stock struts (for monni reasons of course...)
