rice has nothing to do with it, it will just look cleaner w/ a drop, simple as that!

That is one of the best looks I have seen for the FA5. they sit perfect and flow with the lines of the car very well.

Thanks! Some local spring manufacturer, I think they're called Suspension Genius or something? I'd never heard of them, the place that installed the wheels had them. I've got a new car coming in next week, I think I'll go coil overs this time around.

Okay here is my joint with it's new shoes (Speedy Lite 7's) and drop (Skunk2 springs). Pardon the quality; they were taken from my IPhone, the bad thing is that my car was actually pretty clean.. Will prolly take more pictures tomorrow with my digi! Let me know what you think!
