That's what i would get, 19" BBS painted anthracite.. Would look awesome on my CW.

Just need to know if i can use different springs with 1-1.5" drop with the standard shocks, as i have ACC/DCC (dynamic chassis)

What does a post count have to do with Anything? And thats me in the pic.

Wheel specs: 19x8.5 19x9.5 et 48 on both


That was suppose to be a little funny, like what does post count have to do with anything. absolutely nothing, that is why it was suppose to be kind of a joke, i guess my attempt at irony and humor missed the mark.

anyway cool car

Nah.. It is a bit more stiff, but it's not like you can't live with. :D

Any side affects ie spring bind/chatter noise or creaking? I'd like to change the OEM springs with lower ones but only if it was more or less like stock.

Cheers,

No. Nothing that I can think of anyway.. It is like the original setup, just a little lower and better handling due to the marginally stiffer springs. At least in my opinion.. :)

Thanks for that - so you didn't replace the shocks, only the springs?

Yes. Only springs. If I'm not mistaken you are able to use the H&R's along with the DCC too..

And by the way, thanks for the comments on my wheels. :D I am very pleased with that anthracite grey, goes along great with the red. :)

Some tint would really set those wheels off. Nice choice!

hey man, thanks for the compliment! im not a fan of tint normally, but you are spot on with this set-up, i think i will take your advice. I am also typically not a fan of black wheels, but i figured i would play around with something that im not used to this go around. I really want to run red outlines on the wheels as there is a perfect grove around the outter edge of them just right for paint. I know black wheels on a white car have been done, but i have some other plans that are going to be a little different from what we are all used to seeing. ill post more pics as the project moves along. wish me luck and thanks again for the support!!!
