well the car is back on the roads. pics with 19's and ksports

I had blown my auto tranny and been carless for a month. i picked up the car last night slammed on my ksport coilovers and a new-used tranny installed. this morning i went and got my rims and tires installed and got the car aligned as well. overall the ride quality is very nice and im not complaining. i had to go all over the world to 20 different shops before i found one that was actually willing to align my slammed ride. the other ones whinned about it being too low. right now the car is soooo low that my B pipe scrapes all over my driveway. the past 2 months have been hella expensive for me. im definetly done with moddin for a long time to come as im as broke as i could possibly be. anyways, here are a few quick pics taken by cell phone, excuse the quality.

Ksprot coilovers, 19x8 Mille Miglia EV-S and 245/35/19 falken st115!!!
the j walkin ticket i got today ruined it all for me


car slammed on stock rims

Car looks awesome! That's the perfect ride height, or maybe just a hair lower in the back. Sweet ride dude!

Woooooo that's low. So at least you're not complaining about the ride, thats what is important. Defenately looks good, but still might be way too low.

im not complaining about the ride at all what so ever. i was expecting it to be 100x worse but its not. its quite a bit bouncy at some points and ull definetly get thrown going over the bumps. it doesnt bother me although the extra interior noise and the coilovers clicking do !

Nice to see everything worked out for you. Now you can break necks just in time for the summer to kick in full force..how do you like the tires so far?

Oh and invest in a digi cam when you get som extra money..

i love the tires. they are quiet as hell and look sick. im so glad i didnt go with 245/40, it woulda rubbed big time. i need to borrow gf's digi cam lol. im kinda surprised that the 19's dont slow me down that much. i mean, it still pulls very nicely off the line !

Where did you get your tires balanced and wheels aligned? Did you inspect your wheels after they did the work?

hahaha yah in a coupla decades for sure.

the balancing was done by americas tire where i got my tires. the alignment was done at a shop. all other shops refused to align my car cuz it couldnt go up the ramp. so i had to suck it up and pay the $100 for alignment.

I see you are also in so cal. Where did you get the tranny and suspension work done? I may need a new clutch soon, but don't trust many mechanics.

wow man you got rocked on the alignment, i payed 130+tax for a lifetime alignment from firestone, and the one by my house did not complain 1 bit about it being too low, they did their job perfect.

im glad you like your ksports man, it feels nice being the 1st 4th genner with ksports, and i hope my feedback on them helped you out a bit.

i love my k sports. the ride quality is AMAZING, even tho im on 19's. on smooth roads, its just like stock. on rough roads it just bounces a bit but its not harsh at all. the car feels VERY stable. i simply love it. i wish they didnt make that clicking noise so much.

for the alignment, yah i got a$$ raped big time but i had no choice. once u put on the stillen lip then all shops will deny service. i begged them to let me at least TRY to get on the ramp or use some 2x4. wussies didnt let me.


this whole "HARSH ride quality on 19's + slammed rides are harsh" that is going on around the .org is just plain BS to me. honestly its all hear say. its not 1/100th as bad as what people ASSume it is. 2 of my friends were AMAZED by the ride quality. both come from ****ty shock and spring drops that bounce all over !
