Here it is guys, Champion Motorsports springs and custom Milano 22x9.5 wheels (chrome wheel, powdercoated black centers) wrapped in Nitto NT555s (handles amazing). Only thing is the back of the car sits higher than the front Do the springs need to be switched or something? Comments welcome.

Sweet rims. What's up withthe front being so much lower it looks like the back stayed stock. It looks sick though I love those tips, really mean. What brand are they and what exhaust is that? I bought some champion springs but haven't installed them yet. I hope that back has something to do with the install

maybe they didn't do the rear springs?

For my taste the lip's too big on the fronts... they stick out too much. But overall it looks really nice.

with that offset in the front & the ride height be careful not to bend ur fenders going into some or the driveways. get it fixed asap. take a wild guess i'd say the front is the problem rather than the rear.

Eventhough you put lowered springs in the rear it might be that the self leveling suspension is not allowing the rear to drop. If this indeed is the case it's an easy ride height adjustment. Give your installer another chance to look at it. I'm sure he can figure it out.

Thanks for all the comments guys. I will hopefully post sound clips this weekend, the tips are sebring tuning. Tire size is 285/35/22. I don't have the air suspension, and I am sure the installer used all four of the new springs since they are all white compared to stock. I guess I have to bring it back to be adjusted, can the suspension be adjusted with steel springs btw?

the front almost looks too low... I've seen a lot of Cayenne Steel cars with springs... never that low.

I would agree the front offset is off unless you requested your wheels to stick out that much and could be a problem.
