50% front - 20% rear. No problem yet. They seem more black because the layer is "new type"....it reflect much more the sun than usual one (have some kind of mirror effect in it, but can't see it with a quick look)

I actually like the look of the Tanabe drop much more. But, the coilovers with sway bars will probably work better on the track. Keep us posted.
Yeah I know, I'm a little busy with my new project (Keep it on the track)

I'm in Eastern Ohio, about an hour away from the PA border. Our roads suck here too, and the DF210's do fine in the winter.

I never rubbed with my DF210 (during winter I have 15" wheels, and 17" for summer), they were doing good too in winter (and we have bad winter here....let me tell you )

Very nice... I'd love to see this setup on a LB... I love how my DFs look on my LB even with stock wheels...

The tanabe setup is like .3 inches lower in the rear than the front, this is so they could "level" the car out and make it look flat. It works, but looks better with an even drop.

whoa now that you mention it, i do see that on you first picture... maybe you got the LB springs instead of the sedan? (sedan's heavier in the back so needs stiffer springs back there i think)

As you mentioned track car, it's a bit to low for that. Roll your fenders, remove some positive camber up front, and you should be good to go.
I hate the dropped look, or the "slammed" look. It's never functional, unless you have the fenders to match.
