Nope, it tucks perfectly in the rear. I went ballz out today on a back road with a friend in a chase car(not suggested) and with the added grip you DO notice the bushing flex in the chassis. So like I thought, let the games begin !

Any feedback on the Com-C setup? I am doing a very mild -20mm lower spring setup myself to start and was interested in this kit.

They had some issues with durability IIRC. Not sure if those have been sorted or not. I have always liked the concept more than camber plates on a DD.

Exactly what I was thinking, I hope to hear more. Maybe on this car due to it's lower mass the issue will not be prevalent, or maybe it has been addressed. Time will tell I guess.

god, I can't get over how perfect that looks. I actually really like how tight the stock suspension is, but that just looks fantastic.....

@RCE When will you guys be releasing your Yellows + C comps + sways combo?

Seems like an ideal entry setup.

Yes, this. Except for the FR-S also. Seems like this will be the perfect combo for those wanting to hit the perfect look/performance increase for an agressive street car. And the fact that your spring rates will work well with the factory dampers is a huge plus. I can't tell you how happy that makes me.
