Wow that's a perfect stance in my book.

Is it more difficult to keep from scraping the nose on stuff? I want to lower mine but with it so low and the roads around Tallahassee so bad, I'm a little concerned.

I have only had concerns about those annoying bumps in parking spaces. The wheels stoppers, and curbs, but I was already avoiding those already. So far nothing else has scraped or come close yet.

Yah they do look great. Now I'm confused...many people doing 18x8 +45 with success but these +35's look great.

Here are a couple photos of our FR-S lowered using Fortune Auto 500 series prototypes. These have 8K front 8K rear swift springs as well as roller bearing upgrades.









Next is wheels/tires.

Finally a semi slammed look at an 86 riding nice and low.. Still on stockies too... Some spacers would give it a bit better stance for now IMo..... Looks f*kn good though.. How come u went 8k on rear though... Imagine it must be pretty stiff??
