Does this count as slammed? Down 40mm front & rear.

Nup ... I see gaps in the arches so it's not slammed...

I can't claim to be slammed either ... I'd go lower but I already scrape my exhaust going in and out of the driveway. ^_^

Falken make a 195/45/14 if you were looking for something local, instead of 185/60.

OMG! So they do! Thanks for the heads up ...

I looked into importing a pair of Toyo 195/45/14 but Toyo would not do individual orders and most oversea shops would not ship for obvious reasons.

I'll give them a call this Monday.

Well that's according to the Bob Jane site, FK451 i think it;s called.

Also Hankook make 195/45s, I think its the ventus, just check the site.

Detail - Tein S-Tech Springs (theoretical 35mm fr drop, 20mm rear drop). I haven't measured the drop yet as i'm giving the springs time to settle. I will post before and after measuremenst in a couple of weeks. I installed Whiteline fr and rr adjustable swaybars at the same time.
