I'm going with the same spec as yours Wake since I don't want to stretch or have to do any kinda modification to the wheel well. I do think you could lower the rear a bit more. Other than that it looks amazing

Thanks man.

I know I want to lower it some more but I just don't know if I can. I had Eibachs which were lower than I am now but I wasn't able to clear my driveway at my new house. Plus I was scraping up my autokits lip too much.

How steep is your driveway? I have the Autokit lip just like you and my distance front top of the fender to the ground is 26".That is definitely lower that the eibach springs will ever get you lol I can still go up and down my driveway without angling and not scrape if I go slow. here s a reference picture.

It's not that its too steep for the lip, but that I get high centered. It goes up for a few feet then down pretty sharply. With eibachs I was scraping my y pipe no matter how I took it.

Ok I was able to bring the rear down about another 5/16 of an inch and can just barely clear the driveway. Just under 27" from ground to fender all around now. What do you guys think now?

It looks perfect. May have changed my mind about black wheels on a graphite g.

What is the definition of fender? 27" seems higher than what I'd think of as a fender.

Wheel well? I measured from the ground through the middle of the wheel to the middle of the wheel well/fender.

Doh! That makes perfect sense. Thanks for taking the time...

They look great. I wish that I had it in my budget to snag them. Having my first human baby has made me a bit more conservative financially.

Looks really good... I like the molded AK lip and Advans are awesome.
