black max. they're micheline pilots. don't know what model. they're off my roommate's mom's acura! the fronts were wearing out faster than the rears (they weren't rotated) so his dad just replaced all 4. i was like "DAMN GOOD TIMING!" he showed em to me on tirerack, they were 150 apiece!

what springs do you got? they're dropped equally front and back! wtf! my sprints ride lower up front, and intraxs ride lower in back. you're lucky you got matching springs

yeah i have eibach's...they sit VERY even all the way around. once i add weight to the back or people the back drops only because my struts are shot...im finally putting the tok's in when i get my RSB and that should alleviate that problem a little more...

ryan...i didn't get a kit...............

it looks like your drop is almost even with my drop...seesh, makes me want to get eibachs. most people who have them complain that the drop isn't even noticable.

hehe...yeah i hear a lot of complaints about that. honestly the drop is noticeable and it's a perfect drop IMO. when i first got the wheels i thought i wanted to go lower. since i live in the NE and travel in the city a lot it's too low sometimes...
