No fender modifications.

Rides great! I will suggest you lower the car if get 19s. I had a ton of fender gap and body roll. Eibach sportline springs fixed both of those.

Was only rubbing in back, inside edge of rim. Had to bend the E-break cable guard out of the way due to the width, but, that was nothing.

THAT ride looks fantastic! Looking at the CV3's and getting the TRD springs. The question I have is how much difference is there in the TRD and the Eibach sportline springs.


I want to do the same exact look, different wheel

@Beachnuttz the eibach springs (front 1.4 lower rear 1.4 lower) will get you lower than the TRD springs (front 0.5 lower rear 1.5 lower) springs will. There is a company called MANNS that makes a spring that go slightly lower than eibach. I've had my Sportlines since February and I wouldn't change a thing, I love them. They are perfect for the 19" wheel setup that Vossen offers, CV3 or CVT. Air, in my opinion, is the next step and maybe 5mm or 10mm spacers for a nice functional setup.
My car still handles like it did the day I drove it off the lot.

We wanted to go the TRD route just for warranty purposes.....We are trying to get the 4 inches of gap out of the wheel well. The wife LOVES....LOVES the CV3's!

Oh, okay. I can understand that.

I was at a crossroads with the CV3 and CVT. I asked my girlfriend's 7 year old to choose between them. I'm glad he picked the CVT because at the time of purchase I hadn't seen anyone with them on the FR-S or BRZ.

Well he picked good! That car and wheel combo are off the hook!
