Got the new wheels put on...now I need new springs
I got the wheels mounted on the car...and I am having a hard time adjusting. I am not really sure what seems to be the issue....I am wondering if it is the way the car sits now. I am thinking a new set of Eibach Pro-kit springs will help. The rear end is squatted down too much, the front not enough. I have roush springs on the rear only....I have to change this. Sorry for the quickie shot, I was kinda in a hurry.

Wheels look nice. I'm almost in the same dilemma. I was thinking of just putting Roush springs in the rear. How do you like the feel? I wasn't planning on doing the front since I have that chin spoiler.

Lol, yes. The pink calipers are old news. I have had them for a while now.
Thanks Greg. Yes, That is what it looks like on guesstimation. I think a new set of springs all the way around is what is needed.....would you agree?
I am going to be honest....these goodyears don't hold a candle to the Nitto Invos I had on the car. I will run these for now, but the replacements won't be the supercar tires. I could already feel the back end is much looser with these! When I replace the springs, would you be interested in my rear springs? They are Roush....

I am thinking some suspension work is in order. I agree, something's not quite right with this setup.

I have Roush front and rear, and I like the way mine sits. However, some styles of rims look much better on a slammed car. (FR500's or CTR's for instance) Your rims would look great with Roush front.
