I have a feeling a longitudinal muffler like that will drone.
I'll be posting up all that info later this week with more detailed pictures.

A friend of mine is coming by in the next couple of days to do a photoshoot I'll post up everything in a new thread most likely.

Where are you referring to? The clearance between the rim and spring? Or clearance in the fender wells?

Oh lol. Yeah, there's tons of room now. Actually, these coilovers have slotted upper holes on the lower mounts so technically, you could get more clearance just by adjusting that and the camber plates together.

I am planning on getting the esm 004 wheels for my fr-s which are the same specs as these at 18x9 +38mm. I'm also dropping the car 1" on the eibach pro kit springs. My question is whether or not I should buy the 16mm whiteline camber bolts for this set up or if the drop would make the front wheels flush enough. What do you guys think? Is it necessary? I don't mind a slight poke.

How do you feel the car with those wheels? It is slowly or is the same?
