Wow I love it, and I'm super picky about wheels. Plus GSR blades get old after awhile but it looks really nice on your car.

I agree some you need tires with bigger side walls; I definitely wouldn't part with the Mugen suspension.

Those would look so good if you lowered it. What a shame...

It is lowered, lol. It just doesn't look lowered because it was only 22mm, and the tires are low-sidewall.

Let me put this out in the open: I refuse to lower it anymore than I already have. My driveway sucks and I can barely get it off the driveway right now, there'd be no way I could lower even 5mm more. I haven't had a problem with dragging or scraping, but I do have to approach all of the speedbumps in my life with extreme caution.

I live in maryland, where they have to build speedbumps tall enough to make a lifted pickup driver want to slow down.

I spent a lot on the full mugen suspension, it's not just springs guys. I'm not going to lower it anymore. I will however get tires with a bit more sidewall.

Blades look good, but you're not that low at all. Looks about the same as stock GD3 height. Maybe a tad lower, but I think you still have plenty of room, if you wanted, to go lower before you start putting your oil pan at risk.

here is stock.
