Drop installed today

Got my Eibach Pro-Kit installed today. I really like the drop but I should have got my wheels first. I really dont like the looks of it with the factory wheels. I believe its a 2/4 drop with new leaf springs and shackles in the rear.

Very nice. Now you just need some steamroller wheels and tires, and you'll be fine as frog's hair.

Thanks. I really dont llike the look with the factory wheels. I wont have the cash to get new wheels till next month.
Its funny how small 18's look now. My dad has a couple of 1st gen Lightnings and at the time we thought the factory 17's were huge.

Thanks. I posted this so you would have an idea in terms of tire size and filling the wheel well gap. I sent you an email with some information.

It looks good. How's the ride quality? It looks clean and decent with the stockers on there. At least you don't have any ghetto stockers.lol

Looks good. I have been looking at the same kit. Did you install it yourself or have it done? I live in DFW also and I am looking for a good quality shop to do an install. If you dont mind me asking, how much was the kit and if applicable how much was the install? Thanks.
