thanks! the 18s are 255/45R18 - the angle shows more tread than normal if anything.

I still like the 17s a lot. They're pretty light and since the tires are worthless I get to mess around with them

I run 17" tires and am lowered moderately. Looks good for sure! (no pics right now).

I'd say you can't go wrong. If the wife didn't like the factory ride of the V-6 I'd lower hers today! We drove a GT/CS and she hated the ride so for now new (stiffer) springs are out for me, but I would if I could.

Yes. Stock shocks and struts even. Here's a bigger one with a 275/50/17 drag radial in the back.

Thanks Moose! I've been contemplating which springs to go with and since the Eibachs seemed so popular I had pretty much given up in going with anything else. Your pic has definitely forced me to rethink this. FRPP's look like a strong contendor now! As stated, love the stance.
