Kal-El has FINALLY arrived!!!

Hey guys, so after 18 weeks of waiting i picked up my car today then took it straight th Long Tran for wheels, performance grill and painted reflector covers!!! I now the stance looks like a pick up truck but for now i am gonna leave it alone until Eibach puts something out. not in a hurry. The car is aggressive as it is with the BBS wheels gonna take it day by day and see how it feels. sorry for poor pics, all taken with my note 2 and last 3 taken at night.

haha, i have had eibach on my last two cars and been happy. i want a conservative drop that improves handling. right now its about a 3 finger gap. if i can get it down to a little over 1 i am happy. i think an additional 20mm would be perfect, waiting to see eibach release their specs

Love the rims buddy. I'm looking at getting these as well for my M-Sport. What are the sizes and offsets that you got? Where did you pick them up? Thanks for the info...

Good stuff! A drop will really tie everything together but looks great nonetheless.

I am worried about rubbing as my rear is et32 on 19x9.5 wheels. Also I don't want to give up my ride quality. One mistake I made was going with 30 rears instead of 35 rear.
