Running RE 750's in same size now.

 

thanks man. the before doesnt look as bad as i thought.. even though it definitly looks better dropped..

 

Anyone notice the background trees turning more green/sprouting?

What springs are you on?

 

Yeah, he's also got a tape measure going from him to the car in the second pic. And look, there's Waldo near the garage!

On a side note, why did you put new Potenzas on that thing? I thought those tires sucked.

 

I am dropped on Eibach springs. Those series of pics were taken last year, early spring. They were taken about a month apart (reason for the difference in the trees in the back ground)

The tape measure was used to have the same view/distance from camera so that it accurately as possible showed the difference in the drop.

My car originally came with the Bridgestone Potenza RE 92's ($174 ea)(otherwise know on the org as Craptenzas or Blowtenzas). They were the crappiest tires I have ever had on ANY car. In the rain, it was hydroplane city. I ran them till right at 33,000 miles. Then I got my 18x8 MM Evo 5's wrapped in Bridgestone Potenza S-03 Pole Positions($225 ea). These were the BEST performing tire I have ever had on a car. Dry road or wet roads. Being ultra performace, they wear VERY quickly. (they also roar quite a bit) I got right at 20,000 miles out of these tires (and that is to the cords). The tire I am running now is a Bridgestone Potenza RE750's ($165). I feel it is the best compromise between the two other Potenza tires. I like the tread pattern (similar to the S-03's) but without the roaring. On rain soaked roads, the RE750 has show no signs of hyrdoplaning.

So, that is my $0.02 worth. Dollar figures are compliments of www.TireRack.com.
