New Pictures After KW Sleeve Kit Install!
I got my KW Sleeve Kit installed this weekend. The weather was looking good this afternoon, so I blew out of work early to take a few shots with the new Klassen M52s.
Golden Rule #1 in car modifying: If you are going to get wheels, the car must be lowered! I ended up lowering about 7/8" both in the front and in the rear. There is no rubbing, and it appears there are no other issues. What is your opinion on how low I have it? I'm thinking I may raise the rear a bit. I have never been a fan of the "tucked" rear tire look. Before you handling purists get bent out of shape, I went to the track a few months ago and hated it. Roads are super flat and straight in FL, so I decided to get some 20's and lower the car. The wheels and tires are about 17 lbs. in total lighter that stock ZCP. Here are the pics: |

Looks good.
Front is conservative with the drop KW offers. Thats the only con for the sleeve kit. |

I was thinking of the KW sleeve kit as well. I have same color exterior with black interior with 19" GTS wheels black OEM.
With KW Sleeve kit would I be able to have the fenders sit right on top of tire look versus the rear tire tucked??Which I'm not a fan of also. Also how is the ride maintaining with EDC? |
