Pictures KWs + Wheels

Wsup Guys, I know I said Id post pictures of my car after I had the KWs installed , and its been a few months since I said Id post pics...But here they are...

youve all seen my wheels, but for anybody new, they are 20" KLASSEN 8.2s with toyo t1r tires

KWv3 coils...
Ive got it down on 6turns front and rear, the car does not rub at all, its a bit bumpy, but that's because I have it set so stiff (I like it).
KWs vs stock is night and day, it handles everything you throw at it with ease . The coils feel nice and strong, I feel like they will take any type of smack down. I was iffy about spending the extra $$ on coils vs springs, but so far its been well worth the money...
Last week I had it corner balanced & aligned at WEST END ALIGNMENT... amazing job, If you already think your coils are amazing, have your car corner balanced and take another crack at it... WOW

I need a few pictures with the top down, for some reason I didn't think of it at the moment lol, Maybe it was because I just had it washed... Ill have more pics soon...Enjoy











.... G LAKERS

Car looks phenomenal!!! KW's make for a mean looking setup. My buddy has them on his GTR sitting about 3 inches off the ground. Only down side is he scrapes everywhere.

While my car, with Damptronics, isn't lowered as much as yours, I totally agree with your comments about the benefits of a good alignment and corner balance. Since I had the alignment, corner balance, and the Damptronics installed at the same time, I don't know what each contributed to the improvement in handling. All I know is that the car is SO responsive now, even though I thought it was really good before.

Perfect setup - one of my favorite combinations with the white car, tinted windows, black wheels with polished lip, and hunkered down stance. Well done!

Are those PCCB's or aftermarket brakes? Love how the yellow calipers reflect on the polished lip of the wheels from the quarter angles.
