Black, pretty stock! Good enough for me!

Same motor and all parts!
Auto Dynasty lowering springs! Budget friendly ; Front and rears installed. Fronts are pretty good but the rears are way too soft and bottom out often. Very uncomfortable and brutal bumping. I haven't given up yet will continue to look for ways to improve the rear springs with spacers or a riser to lift slightly.

56mm center bore

Achilles ATR-K 165/40r16 tires on all 4 which are too small. Go for a taller sidewall next time.
Did you paint or powdercoat your steelies? I think the white looks awesome!
Thanks! I just used white rattlecan paint and then used rattelcan clearcoat to finish

Thanks! I like them as well. I did replace the red lugs with short chrome acorns and I like it more. I need to also get little caps for the front hubs to help the appearance.

For winter mode I just put the OEM rears back in, but am still looking for a means to help the rears. What I mostly want is to raise the car an inch in the rear. I looked into buying adjustable threaded spacer that a lot of suspension coilover kits come with but those are hard to find on their own. I am going to try adding tubing between the coils to see if that helps at all. I will try for a thicker type of material than the vinyl first.
