    15x7 front and 15x8 rear. Im honestly dissapointed in the tires, i test fitted some other 185/55 hancooks and they sat beautifully, but these falkens 921, of which i've read many a good opinion, just don't seem to sit as nice.

    Oh well...next set of tires

    Thanks guys! Well the fronts were all good, H&R adapters, bolt on bolt off via the allen keys. Now the rears, old mates drilled INTO the drum and then INTO what i can only think is a homemade adapter. So i had to remove the drums then smack the studs out. Easy enough i guess, and for good actually, found out i reaalllyy need to do the rear wheel cylinders lol.

    Heres two extra shots, no proper side on. Coilovers are currently set at what i want to keep them at, but the drop just isn't there right now. Im hoping a week of daily driving will let them settle, anyone else had experience with hottuning?
