haha thanks Piero. i love the drop too but it slightly rubs still. raising her up 1/2 inch and im hoping the tires will still be a little bit tucked and flushed. me and my friends are doing the rear today so hopefully i can get a photo of the whole car.
rajin929 yeah the reason i chose the EK was because the others looked too small to me atleast. i got the idea from derick and ashley (abailey4) cause they have BMW ones which i think are pretty hot. if your doing them yourself and have a template, you might have to cut slightly larger than what the actual template is. when i did mine, it was still tight but i managed to get them in.

did you have to get rid of your fender liner? it might be an option of mine but the driver side has the CAI filter down there.
I modified the metal fender slab where the liner clips attach to by bending them back gently and re-attaching the clips. I had no choice with my uberwides. It's still there though lol

On my fender liner I just took the tabs and bent them flush and tucked the fender liner on the inside of the tab instead of the outside. I had to trim it a little to get it to tuck up in there. Because with my 19's it rubs like a mofo. That was when I had 235's now I have 215 and I dont have any problems so I might lower it more
