This makes me want to go Eibach, but I just just can't! Maybe after the bumper to bumper wears off.

In the pics it looks a lot more flush than what I have but that's because I have 215 rubbah. I'll need new tires soon and I think I'll do 225. How often do you rub?

Never... I wish I could rub.. I am gonna get some 18x10s soon, and I'll get 225s stretched on them. But my springs haven't settled yet tho. :P
