I have B&G springs on my car. I thought it was 1.5 drop front and back. Anyways...I was actually going to post a new thread but i can use this one .
So i have the 1.5 drop and I have the 15 inch Riken mesh rims, the ones with the polished lip. In the back is 205/50/15 and every bump (except for really small ones) the sidewall of the tires rubs the wheel well and in a few months time, I need new tires already I dont understand this cuz i hear of guys putting 17's on there car with no probs.
My question is does anyone know the offset of the Riken rims i have? My mechanic told me that the offset might be wrong but how can it be if i have a GSL which means the Rikens are specially made to fit the 12a bolt pattern?
If anyone has a pair of good condition set of panasports they want to trade for a pair of mint old school rikens let me know
And on a side note...the car is really stiff with the springs and really tight.
I dont have pics by the way Jeff sorry.

www.shox.com has them all for the cheapest.
Its 200 US for the B&G springs, and then like $120 US for the blues.
I'm going with the illuminas tho. And a custom spring set.
My car is going to be very low. I like fancy things. yay.
