I've had 3 people in the car (don't ask how we fit someone in the back ) and didn't have any rubbing issues.

You are on a square setup in the photos with the black grids??? Wow!

Can I request some more photos on the front fitment please?

Wheels look great

I wish the car wasn't pearl white so i could get white wheels but they kinda clash to me, Blitz offers a wheel in pearl white just not sure how close it would be it would probably be worse.

I'm looking into getting these springs because the 1.4" drop is beautiful IMO. But I dunno if road conditions are worse here compared to there so still unsure if I should just go 1".
How does the drive feel?
Also what are the specs on the gold rims? rear seems to have more offset

The Black grids are not square, they are 18x8.5 +44 front and 18x9.5 +38 rear.

This is all the pictures we have of the gold / black setup

However, white setup will be posted tomorrow....the picture above is just a preview.

I guess it's hard to judge in pictures, but it looks pretty good in person, we took it to a local meet and got TONS of compliments on the white setup....definitely a keeper for me.

the 1.4" is really not the bad and it feels pretty much the same, with a little less body roll

perfect spring setup in my opinion.

Rears are a wider width, they are 18x9.5 +38....fronts are 18x8.5 +44

There is always camber. You can't adjust the rear without adjustable lower control arms. My car is sitting about the same right now while I wait for the right set of arms. It drives fine daily, and I'm doing track runs soon at Laguna.
