    You're not going to have much tire to cushion bumps in the road.
    Well, you're right! I'm still on the air about that...I might get 17"s but no less than that!

      18"s will be fine. You'll just have to be careful while driving to avoid potholes, bumps, and other road imperfections.

      Potholes + wheels with very little tire = bent/warped wheels.

              So your saying you prefer my wheels but you think my car looks ridiculous right now???

                Nope.
                If you're having that problem, take the taillights off and reseal them all along the edges. I did that when I first bought these, and I haven't had a single issue.

                  lol, no. It's either keep it around this height (Megan sleeves), or lower it an inch from factory height (D2 springs).

                  Get the wheels on your car. Maybe I'm just crazy.

                    Just got done. but im not revealing it all until i lose my finger gap....
                    I was just messing with you. It has a very wide and aggressive stance from the front or the back. almost like a guy flaring his traps a bunch. from the sides its not bad at all.

                    coilovers should be here any day now.

                        What's your drop now, and how much do the wheels poke out from the fenders?

                        POST UP SOME PICS NOW!

                          Yup. If they're already dirty, take them apart and clean them out. Once cleaned, use silicone liberally to make sure it doesn't happen again.

                              Yes, same as the headlights. But, keep the oven temp down a little more.

                              If you have a heat gun, use that instead.

                                well im going to try the pussy way frist. cleaning without opening them up . and then if i see im not getting anywhere im going to open them up .

                                Any temp you think would be good

                                and they should jst come apart with a little bit of pressure right .
