Finally got my KYB AGX's in to go with those Eibach springs! was like a total of 1.25 all the way around. Popped in the clear side markers as well as the stainless grills!! Still have yet to paint and drop the Brushed decals. Its riding and looking soooo freakin badass now! I actually LIKE my rim choice! Before I was thinkin about ditchin them for a new set.

Its only lookin great thanks to people from WS6Store and Afterthoughts Auto! Not to mention those great stores on Ebay! Would say thanks to my decal company but they havent come in yet.. goin on 2 weeks.. but Im sure they'll show up.. was a big order, including my center cap decals

Also It may be lower than 1.25. I forgot to measure the clearance before I changed em out. They previous owner did say they were about a 1.5 drop on his WS6. So it is possible its a 1.5 and not a 1.25. Does Eibach make 1.5 drop springs?

Well the springs will settle in and sometimes be lower than actual height they say... You have the pro-kit? The springs should be black, but I think if you got the sportsline kit the springs are red and they have a 1.5 drop...

the KYB's are EXCELLENT! I was expecting crappy performance for such a cheap price but hell they ride SOOOOOO much better than what my originals did. they are the adjustable ones so I have the front set on 7 and the rear set on 6. From Factory the come set at 4. I wanted to have little tire rub if any and so far this seems to be working out great.

Yes the springs are black so it could be the prokit. Before when I was looking for springs I did however notice that you could choose the color of your springs before they are shipped. I just figured the guy picked black for his color.. in which worked out great because the KYB's are red so it matched up perfectly.

As for ground effects they will never go on this car. I lovin the smooth look.

nice bird. i'd put ground fx on it
I would rather gain the 20 lbs, it would have the same effect

sweet formula, I might go with other rims though, but they look pretty good
