Looks really good! Youll want to roll your fenders if you plan on lowering it though. I lowered my car with 315s and didnt roll them before hand, and now I have cuts on the sides of my rear tires. Also, you should move your wing back about an inch. Best part is its free!!! Makes it look better.

I rubbed really bad with Eibach's and 315 Nittos. but then again Nittos run wider than most tire brands. just find a good shop to roll your fenders and it will give you more clearance plus even if it does rub it has a lower chance of cutting the tires.

looks good man! Roll the fenders, install these UPR/Eibach Pro springs, and you'll be set... for now.

Rubbing is more Wheel Backspacing than it is tire width... It is a delicate balance of rubbing the fender lips on the outside and the Quad shocks on the inside if you still have them.
