Looks good. I'm with you on 18" being big enough. I had a G35 coupe before I got my GT and I vowed never to own rims bigger than 18" ever again (The G had 19" rims). I'm through paying that much for tires. I'm keeping my 17's for now, though I'd really like to find som 17x10.5's for the rear...

Did you get a nice even drop on both sides of the car with those springs? I wouldnt mind lowering my car just a little, but I don't want to slam it. I had a big drop on my 98 SS and it just wasn't worth it...

I've got the steeda ultralites on mine which are basically the same as his and mine aren't even worth a crap.

Looks good on 3 sides but the driver side rear is barely lower than stock. It's over a 1/4" higher than the passenger side. Both springs are seated the same on each side.
 
Mine is roughly the same clearance on all 4 wheels wells. It worked out really well.

And BTW...for those who said my 60' times would suffer ;) I got my best 60' WITH the springs hehe. 1.73
