Nice car. I couldn't drive it into my driveway though. Too low. Is it really practical for everyday, everywhere driving?

Don't get me wrong it's really cool and i like it!!

I love that you're that low without having stupid poked wheels (like all the VW kids!).

Wheel/tire specs??

That is really sharp, love the slammed look. Wish I could go that low, but I need to drive over speedbumps every day.

You ain't kidding. I have TSW springs on my car which puts it nowhere near in the ballpark of your car, and it's still a pain on some of the freeway seams and the speedbumps at my work. I couldn't imagine driving a car that low on my everyday commute.

But I'll still drool over yours.

I would definitely define that as "poked". Doesn't bother me though. Wish it was a little lower with that tire size though. Think I'd rather see a 205/45 at that ride height, but then of course you wouldn't get as much stretch/clearance.

Sorry 'bout that, had a product to help with the driveway scrapeing problem but the image wouldn't transfer so no point in continuing. I'll just PM the info.

Your rims look great with the white paint. At the bottom of my 'to-do" list is a wish list. Powder coated wheels are definitely on the wish list.
