Well, here's the first set of pics of my new girlfriend. Sad isn't it? I still love her. PriusChat Forums - matt ackerman's Album: blustrrk_11 I still can't decide whether to drop this bad girrl or not. My new 18's left way more of a gap than I was expecting, but feel the standard Eibach drop (.08" rear/1.2" front) is a bit too much for my taste. I think maybe .4" rear/.6" front would probably be just right-- if such a modest drop is even possible. What do you guys (and gals!) think? (sorry- I've got the front and rear drops reversed in the poll-- & don't see where I can correct that :-\
Unlike most 18"-wheel Prius, yours doesn't look as funny or goofy undropped for some reason. It actually looks comparable to stock 17"-wheel Prius. Given that you're reluctant to drop it, I vote for no drop. However, if you do drop it go for Eibachs.
Very nice mods. Love the wheels and the tail lights. it looks good without the drop but if you do drop it, go with the Eibach's (0.8" rear/1.2 front).
What are the specs of your wheels (including offsets) and tires? Yours is one of the very few 18"-wheel Prius that don't look odd or goofy undropped. Love the look of bronze on blue!
Hey CHIZELD-- thanks my man, yours were the tinted tails that inspired me to do mine-- & I must say, I like 'em!
Thx 32K...! Here's all I've got on the new setup: Tires- Continental Extreme Contact DWS 215/40ZR/18 Wheels- DRAG DR-33 18x17.55-100/11445Br
