That looks great!!! What sizes/offsets are the wheels, and what tires/sizes did you put on them? Thanks

The wheels are from AFS - www.afs.com. Offset is 56mm on all 4 wheels. Tires are Kuhmo Ecsta 712s, 275/35/18. I have the compression set to full soft, and the rebound about 5 clicks from full soft, it rides very similar to the stock DeCarbons during normal driving. The initial shock going over a bump is a bit more harsh though, the Konis react VERY quickly.

Looks really nice... I love the stance. Are they DMS springs in the rear w/spacer removed, or stock springs. Either way, looks really good.

Looks great! Have you considered remove the side moldings and Z28 badges? I did this to my car, I'm a fan of the clean un-interrupted lines on the side.
