Dropped the S-Funf on coilovers

Hey guys,

I ordered a set of KW V1 coilovers and had them installed on my car this weekend....what a difference in handling! The car stays planted to the ground. It rides a little rough over crappy road but that was to be expected.

Sorry for the crappy phone pics...when I get some time I'll bust out the DSLR and get some good ones.

-Chris

Looks good. would spacers be an option or you think the tires would start rubbing? I think they would make for a more aggressive look.

The car actually has 15mm spacers in the front and 20mm in the back already....I wasn't keen on going much bigger than that.

it has to be the pictures then, your car looks amazing in any case, and your drop makes me wish I didn't opt for the Dynamic suspension.

I think I'm about 2-2.5 inches lower than stock now....you know you can still get away with a set of the H&R OE sport springs that will bring you down about an inch on ADS, right?

Yep, I'm picking up a set with some spacers just for the looks.

Jesus Chris!! You are insane. That is slammed. And i'm guessing that last parking lot pic is off of Weslayan. I give your engine block two weeks in Houston at that ride height!

I've been good so far, made it through the nasty streets of mid-town but I had to drive about 10 mph, haha. I might raise it up a hair but so far so good
