Nothing major just 2" in the rear. To me it made a big difference what do you guy's think?

It looks much better without "the gap" above the tire in the rear. Nice job!

Looks bad ass. I love 2nd Gen's. I can't wait to get mine started. It's just sitting right now waiting to get in the shop. I love to see pics of you guy's cars, it gives me inspiration.

any idea how big those wheels are? They look great and fill the rear wheelwell nicely.

lower the front more. there's a gap over the front tire and not over the rear. The rake is gone. You need rake....

True, but I don't think I can go much lower in the front with my current setup and keep it very drivable.

Oh yeah, I think that made it even more bitchin. All it needs now is a drawing to go with it. hehehe:)

Great looking car...my favorite color too.

My wife made the mistake of saying "that's nice looking" when I showed her a picture of a 2nd Gen split bumper the other day. I think I know what my next project is. :)

The car is beautiful, the stance is great. Are they 20 x 10 5.75" back spacing. Did you tub/Minitub if they are 12 x 20's. They look just right, maybe its the colour, polished wheels might look to big.

Thank you, The rears are actually 20 x 8.5 although a mini tub, 4 Link and air ride suspension are on the list
