You've got room for more meat on those tires. Hell, I'm going with 225/40 on my 18s. But spend money on a drop before you replace perfectly good tires.

Yeah, get a drop before you get your kit. I know it sounds bad, but if you think about it, you would rather drop your car and kill that wheelgap than lower the rest of the body and still have it ride high.

So get the drop, and then talk about the kit later. Your rims will flow fine, don't worry about it.

Oh yeah, and take the picture from the better side next time. We don't want to see your accident. j/k.

I have eibach prokits if you want to see what it looks like. but to me, i think you might need the eibach sportline. 2" drop.

well...when i first ordered it, they said it was out of stock (this was the combat kit). they said they'd have it in in about 2 weeks. so i wait 2 weeks (they never emailed me) and i call them and ask them what the deal is...they tell me that for some reason they cant get the back bumper in. so i say screw it and switch to the street fighter kit since they supposedly had that in stock. that whole fiasco took about a 3 weeks. well i called them again about 2 weeks later and they say it shipped out 2 days before i called and it will take 2-4 weeks to arrive. well i'm on week 3 almost week 4 now....and very pissed. i've been driving around for almost 3 months now with a black fender, a bumper cracked in like 10 different places, a rear bumper thats barely hanging on, and one piece of my original lip kit. i want to get this thing back together and painted...and i guess lowered now.

If they haven't shipped out your kit bro, I'd ask for your money back . That isn't very good business. And I'd recommend a drop before a kit for sure just like what Jon said. If you don't drop your car and just put a kit on there, it's gonna look funny.
