Fam, Fam, you have the cleanest max I've seen so far. I want to do a lip kit on mine but I'm apprehensive about it scratching. Plus I want to keep the factory wheels(16s) and ride height. Is yours lowered?

I don't want to scratch it and I prefer having the factory wheels(16s) since the ride quality is better and tire lasts so much longer. Is that the Stillen lip kit or Sarona?

My wheels are XXR 559 Chromium Black. 18x8.5. Ive had wheels on every car ive had for decades now. The ride quality depends on the tires you choose and how meaty they are and your suspension setup. Mine rides perfectly fine and takes bumps great. I origianlly wanted coilovers since i had some on my last car but the ride height this set up works for me based on where i live now.

Youre gonna repaint the whole car? Your paint looks good I'd do the bumper and put the rest towards coilovers and a set of rims. Smaller profile tires means less cushion between you and the road.
I did 5th gen tein advance coilovers (just require redrilling a hole on the front struts because the hole is like a half inch off) because they are cheap and I love the ride quality even though I'm lowered close to 2 inches. Then I went from OEM 16s to 17 inch rims with a slightly smaller profile tires (I actually matched the outer diameter to the original tires because bigger wheels means a slower acceleration). I can't even tell the difference between wheels other than my braking improved bc I went with RPF1s which are lightweight and I like the style
