Default Finally got the lower (DMS). Small photoshoot.

I had the day off so I put the DMS springs in and snapped a few photos. I didn't have my personal camera with me so these aren't as good as usual, but I was too anxious to wait so I took these anyway. Enjoy:

Looks great, hows the handling? Hows the ride? All stock suspension other than DMS springs? What size are those rims?

Very nice stance...but trust me, they will settle a bit lower! Watch out for steep driveways, deep dips and big speed bumps! I went w/DMS+Koni and they handle pretty nice.

Looks great! Make friends with a painter if you want to keep your front bumper free of scrapes (trust me, I know)...

Unless you go over everything slowly and at an angle. Have had mine for 1 year and the only scrape I have is from when my dad took it out one day But they are great springs, perfect drop, ride, and handle good.

Or smoke it like the ZR1 stripes, that would be original and clean as hell.

Unfortunately there are places out here in Cali where it's just not possible..

Thanks everyone, I'm very happy with the springs too. The ride quality is good. I haven't noticed a big difference in cornering, but on the highway the ride is much more rigid and the car feels like it wants to go straight, which is good. I was tired of the mushy handling of the stock springs. Haven't scraped anything yet either

I was planning on doing the ceta mod next week in black, but now you have me thinking. That has the potential to look pretty sick. Thanks for the suggestion.

What other suspension mods are you running? stock shocks? BTW looks badass.
