Oh. It looks horrible. My car has rather small tires on it but it doesn't look like that. Whatever.

Re: My dad tricked out my brakes :)

lol nope it's stock height. I dunno the size of the rim. I assume it's the same as on my 2.4 l because they look like the same rims. I think the tires are the same size too... It is really high in the back. Not sure why because I think my old spyder was lower... But the suspension may have been shot it had 153k on it. Just huge wheel gap. My only problem with lowering it would be we get alot of snow here in winter and I'm not sure how it would do. Other then that I'd be all for doing it. I can just barely get my jack under it now to get it up off the ground...

It does look good I was surprised also because I didn't think copper would look as good as it did. But it turned out sharp and I have a pare of the chrome mitsu rims for in the summer. I don't run them in winter because I use to have my snow tires on my rims that look like the ones in the picture..

Vanilla After looking at your picture it looks the same as mine. I noticed my car noticeably slopes to the front though. Do you have anything done to yours?

http://www.novaslp.net/pics/v/newcar2/img_0083.jpg.html if you see on that picture it slopes forward a bit. I guess once I put amp and subs in back again that may weigh it down a bit...

Re: My dad tricked out my brakes :)

No mine is stock height. I guess its just because I have 100+ extra pounds in the trunk. But my next mod is defineatly going to be coilovers...just got to order them up some time.

But I think all eclipses and most all cars anyway has the front sitting a little lower.
