New stance, bright sunny day, new thread?

Installed the new suspension and gave her a bath. The weather was nice FINALLY and I had to shoot her.

I used my homey's 50mil 1.4 prime. Kindy tricky, but fun nonetheless.

Thanks folks!

I love the Teins. They dampen exceptionally well and the OTS spring rates are very plush At the moment I am cruising on them at the recommended "normal" setting of 8 clicks from the stiffest setting. I'll experiment with stiffer settings later.

That being said, I am experiencing the frequently discussed "knocking" issue at all 4 corners

Didn't realize they were that cheap. It will be KILLER if my local dealer has one in stock. I'll slap it on tomorrow!

Or if someone has a EBP Type S front lip available for sale.

That alley looks familiar. That's right off Van Ness on Olive next to the Sprint Store.

Yup! Nice and smelly and full of Crack Heads. I just wanted to capture a few angles, since I had just thrown my wheels on and there was good lighting in front of this one little business. But in the short time I shot, I got a crazy ass dude walk up to me trying to sell me and anyone who walked by Heroin and/or "anything you need" lol.

I bet you recognize where I took this as well





chubbs--Thanks! I freaking LOVE THEM!

Thanks man! I got the itch for these recently since I decided I wanted 16's--particularly 16x8's. Then a set just landed in my lap, so-to-speak, and I jumped on them! I freakin' love them.

But, yeah, as you saw on the side wall, 225/50/16. I am on the practically non-existent BEEFY tire bandwagon lol.

Wheels are 16x8 +50mm 15lbs. These are the later model, since the first ones were prone to cracking (they were 13lbs though!).


spin_r_g lol. I shot there first!
