Hey there Gir,

Its a 2 inch drop with 18 inch rims. They defiantly look a little bigger now that the car is dropped. The tires I cant remember the exact specs. They are a Hankook tire. I know that much off the top of my head. I also know that they cost about 140 bucks a piece. Killed me last year for a new set...
Actually the drop has a pretty harsh ride now that I'm livin down in the rough roads of the city for school. Oh well, I like the look I guess.
I've seen the nice 1.25" drop on quite a few GAs and it really looks nice. I just like the lower stance presonally.

Have a good one man,
Jon

Hey Jmoney,

I actually got them off Ebay for around 200 bucks. That included the off chamber kit as well. They are a SpringTECH spring. If you are going to drop it make sure you buy the off chamber kit.
I also threw on a set of the KYB struts.
