Default the cam got a new look

ok, so i did something interesting tonight and i'm wandering if any one has done the same. i swaped out my eibach prokit rear springs for my old stock 1LE springs it gave it a nice rake ( i think it looks bad ***) and it gives me enough room to fit 295-45-18's in the back, haven't taken any pics yet but will tomarrow. I haven't driven yet, just wandering what to expect on the ride???? it has KYB AGX shocks on it i've had them since i lowered the car a year and a half ago.

um you may sacrafice turning just the tinyist fraction of a percent, but you will big time make up for it in hooking up, especially with those tires
