NITTO INVO 235/35r19. i probably can only lower 1/2" more before i run out of threads on the adjustable perches. if you don't have enough room for springs, it might just have to be bags, conventional coils, even full coilovers w/ short body dampers, can only go so low. the EASY STREET kit is a cheaper alternative to going full blown AIR RUNNER.

    here's some pics taht show my front clearance for reference:




    o yeah and you definitely need to roll/fold/cut the rear fenders so that you can push the wheel out even more in the rear... the rear flushness is the key in what you are going for. i think from looking at the pics, that you can go w/ a 15mm-20mm spacer back there if you run enough negative camber and cut/fold the rear fender lips out (since the 205 tire is giving you plenty of clearance). thank god our rear wheels don't need to steer, but mitsu didn't have to make the front wells THAT much bigger!
    Is the EGR visor colored match the car?

    nokcy21 hooked me up with some cut progress springs that he had. the ride isnt that bad at all. but i have only about an inch of travel on the fronts so it bottoms out pretty easily. i cut the bump stop down to just the last rib so it doesnt hit that bad

    No rubbing?

    BTW, is that an R34 skyline in the background of the 3rd picture from the top?

    heres the problem though. at this height the toe in is massive and i dont think there is enough adjustability for the rear. the front can be corrected no problems but idk about the rear.
