so i decided to go with the BC Racing BC coilover kit, since ive seen positive reviews and its a great price for what you get.

now its deciding if i should get 17x9 +35 or 18x9.5 +38?

BIG UPDATE, to those of your are following my build haha

- Black housing headlights with 6000k HIDs
- Rota Grids 17x9 +42 RSB with 235/40s

i know it needs to be lowered asap. but i just spent a lot of money in a short time and need to save up again before coilovers.

I like how that thing is looking and how it sounds nice job. Are you happy with how it sounds with that axleback or are you looking to trade and hear new things?
