Finally got the car done. --Specs-- Springs: Tanabe DF210 Wheels: Konig Helium 16x7 40mm offset Tires: Continental ExtremeContact DWS 195/50/16 front and 205/50/16 rear.. I love the look of it however I wish the front was a little lower, hopefully the springs will settle some. So far (today only) it looks like I might of lost 3-4mpg which I can deal with. I will update this thread as I get more driving history behind me. The ride quality has not been affected much in my opinion.
Lookin' good. The ride height looks nice, just expect big bumps to feel bigger, that's all. The wheels add a healthy dose of masculinity to the car. The bronze helps hide how visually light they are. Did you get the weights of the wheels+tires by chance? Why the decision to run staggered tire sizes?
Purely aesthetics is my reasoning on the staggered tire size. When I put the 195/50 on the back I just wasn't happy with the gap left in the wheel well. I tried the following sizes on the car to get the look I was going for: 195/50, 205/50, 205/45. The tire place was extremely patient with me, lol... Wheel and Tire Weights: 195/50: 33lb 8oz 205/50: 35lb 4oz 195/45: 34lb 6oz
