Great shots! Now lose the splash guards and find some posh looking center caps.

Haha, Thanks!

We never run center caps, even though GL makes some pretty nice ones.

Do you have any profile or side shots of the car? I'm curious on the stance of the Swift Springs, thanks!

Those look great. I would only buy white wheels to put on a white car.

I believe the way the wheels are turned they are hiding the splash guard from view.

To be honest I was thinking of getting some of the Swift springs, but that car really doesn't look lowered to me. I know you have 18s on there, are the tires the right size (same overall diameter as oem) or are they smaller?

looks awesome, how come you went with the progressive springs and not linear? It seems to be a track biased setup..

I will post up some profile pics on Wednesday. We like to give the springs a couple of days to settle before looking at the difference in ride height. I will also swap the stock wheels and tires on for a better comparison.

They ride amazing though!
