hey man, how much of drop is that? im thinking of getting tein basic, but their height adjustability isnt that wide compare to omni power...which gives maximum drop upto 4in. i wont tuck my tire in, but i would go as low as somewhere like where you had your car first.....thx in advance man

Thanks everyone for the comments!

Dang that looked awesome slammed!!!! Why are you selling the wheels?
I love the size of the wheels and i think it looks awesome as well! haha but even with neg camber it rubs a tiny bit in the back. But i got another set of 17x7.5 Racing Hart C5 (3-piece version) offset +44. so i'm hoping it won't rub anymore.

is that the Type R lip? i never really liked the Type R lip but it looks really good on your car.
I kinda thought the same thing, but i changed my mind when i got it installed.

Keep the wheels, they look super clean on your car, and drop it so it's tucked...or at least flush...keep it up!
If the other set of wheels i got turns out ok, i might just keep these wheels for fun if i ever want to go back to 18. haha and it's pretty flush now i'd think.

NICE sedan! My boy who used to have a 6gen 98 had hayame dual mufflers and they sounded so nice. Didn't know they made coilovers! How much do they run?
How much they run? u mean height? well, if i remember correctly, i think it was 0-4 inches. getting it low is easy, but making it as high as stock is hard.

bring the front down again :bash: lol

what wheels are you looking at? with the drop yours look good on the car :D
I admit, it looks sweet how low it was, but it was difficult getting around...especially here in cali. i think roy would agree with this. haha as stated above, i got another set of 17x7.5 racing hart c5 original 3-piece +44. the rims shown are 18x7.5 with +42 offset.

If you live in an area that has smooth roads, then go as low as you want! haha but for me, i was forced to bring it up due to road conditions. haha i didn't exactly measure the stock height, but now it's about slightly less than a fingure gap in the front, and lower than that in the rear. sorry for those who hate using fingure gap technique. haha

I haven't had any experience with both, but i'd say go with omni! haha

haha thx man, i know wat u mean! :thumbsup:

honestly, MORE stiffer compared to stock....haha...i'd be bouncing in the car especially on the roads around here. it's like riding a horse at times haha but performance wise like cornering and taking off really improved to my surprise. More performance = less comfort i think haha....i was driving 3 passenger, and the rear was rubbing like a mofo on the roads here because of the wheels offset, they were like.."OMFG! wats happening?!" haha and i was like "SORRY! SORRY!"..... at times i wish it was softer though =/
