Finally got my wheels mounted. 17" Maas 026C with 215/45/17 Falken tires.

I will be going lower pretty soon. Just have some more important things first to finish.

Cool, cool. Looks like you're going to have rubbing problems when you lower it. Easy fix tho. Roll fenders/camber/narrower tires (mild stretch). How low are you planning on going?

What rubbing problems? I already lowered it with the new tires. Sent the shocks out to get revalved since I want a slightly stiffer ride. I am rolling the fenders when I get some free time. Other than that, I plan on going with a PG spacer in the rear to bring it a bit more flush.

When I put the wheels on, but took them back off. I am getting the shocks re-valved.

May be it's the angle of the pics...I thought you were going to have some rubbing. But that's cool that you don't have any rubbing issues.

The fronts get cambered in a little bit when it is lowered. These shots were at stock height.
