The car has no lip. I bought a US general "low profile" jack the other day that has a 3" minimum sadle height and it wont fit under the "pyramid" looking nub under the front of the car to jack it up. lol. And yes that is my daily ride height.



The sides are actually maxima side skirts. They dont just bolt on to the I30. We had to cut it to make it fit. I prefer these because they are a little more bulky than the I30 skirts but not too busy. Its not painted and wont be for a while because I currently have $1.60 in my bank account and $8.65 in my pocket along with a lighter and some lint...

Let me know what you think. Haters are welcome too.

Wow that is sick. Love the drop and the rims. I'd love to go that low but Canadian roads aren't smooth enough. 2inches is good enough lol

Your roads must be better than mine...Your car would get DESTROYED here.

Looks good though, not necessarily my style, but still pretty nice. Paint your side skirts...the white looks weird.

huge props for the illest stance/fitment on the .org right now (and possibly ever). not a huge fan of the actual wheels but in a case like this it doesn't even matter. i just can't believe your 1/4s have survived.

Yup there coilovers. Nobody else has my setup though. I take my driveway at angles, well i take any road imperfection at angles. lol

Florida has great roads and great weather for the most part. I wouldnt have gone this low if I lived anywhere else. The coilovers ride like a dream.

I gotta say, I didnt really like the wheels when I first saw them either. It's just one of those things you gotta see in person. The stance and fitment goes a long way too as you know. There are some wheels designs that just make me gag. But when you make the wheels poke some and tuck the tire in it looks sick!

Fenders are rolled and have a very slight pull. I only rub on medium to large sized bumps. I wanna go down to a 235/35 to help out with that some, but the tires are still fresh. I wanted to put a 205/35 on the front, but I couldnt find them in a tire I could afford.

Thanks for all the comments so far.

sweet I30.. I really like the wheels..looking forward to seeing your future mods..man the comparison shots do really show how low that thing is damn...on another note lol, I got the same problem with jacking my car up...the 2 ton jack I bought wont fit under my sideskirts so I have to use the screw jack that came with the car to inch the car up a bit and then slide the 2 ton under the lift point...gets pretty annoying but I guess thats the price of being low

Damn that stock I30 looks like an SUV compared to yours. That's insanely low. Clean and sick looking car though.

: meh i dun care. it looks absolutely spectacular, no one can deny that. i never really liked the wheels anyways. im glad it went to a more grateful owner.

essential1: are you still running the federals up front? if you are, you shouldve noticed that the inner sidewall is way more stretched than the outer sidewall. its not really "centered" so-to-speak. on your next set of rubber, id rock a 40 series front tire on there as the 35 is way too short compared with the rears. especially if youre going to run a 205. it gives it a slightly raked stance with the 35 but if you want it more level and more rubber... on the other hand, given that you're pretty much dumped clearance may be an issue with a 40.
looks great btw!
