Just finished lowering my car. (56k watch out.)
Heres some pictures. I used the Strano lowering springs, are said to lower 1.25" and used the Koni SA shocks. Im pleased with how it looks and like the choice I made.
Heres a before picture of the front wheel.
And here is it lowered.

pie- free
That looks so much better. I've been tempted to get those.
The real question though, is how much better does it handle now?

Very nice drop.

Well, to be honest, with my larger swaybars, I really can't tell how much BETTER my handling is, just that it handles really REALLY well. The quarter inch of extra drop is really more for the aggressive look rather than for the improvement in handling, which again would be only a little better.

Again, with this drop, I was lookin for an aggressive stance.

Sink, that looks perfect, but I can't help but wonder what bigger rims in the back would look like.
hunter do you have more rim/tire in the back? cause there's so much less room than in the front, if it were mine, I'd think about droppin' the front a lil' mo. that is if it wasn't going to 'cause too much front lower spoiler clearance problems and/or steering problems. I think another 1/2" would give you that "sick" stance your lookin fer'

See this is what's starting to aggravate me, I know this is going to happen when I drop my car as well. That and every time I find a rim I like it comes in nowhere near the size I want.
I guess you've rolled the front fender lip already?

Nope. Front fender is untouched. Just the rear. Front fender lip is that fiberglass/plastic stuff. The rear is metal.
Just needed to roll the rear fenders in just a bit. You can see where the paint chipped just a bit; you can't see it unless you're looking straight up at it.
