poontanggt, any problems with new noises since you lowered your car, was it a full 2 inches, and what kind of C/C plates are you running?

I havn't got any yet i'll have to wait a month or so. There are some little creaking noise from the rear but it's a vert so there are always some kind of noises and i think they are still breaking in. I have a roush stage one front valance so i just have to be real carefull not to scrach it. I'll try to post some pics tonight.

they are 18by9.5 all around. Tires are 245 40 18 and I can go maybe 255 in the fronts but i can braley fit two fingers from the tires and the fender now. I had 245 50's and I broke the fenderwell with those. These nittos were cheap so i had to get them.
