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.

Dropped on what? Coilovers? Nice rims.. those are HUGE!! lolz is your wheel suppose to have that lip? Nice driveway too...
I couldn't get up my driveway if my car were to be that low if my life depended on it.. for some reason, they gave our house one that is steeper than my neighbors :P

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.

Thanks for all the comments so far.
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.

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

: 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!
