It's mostly the angle of the shot. Trust me, it's lower than stock. I won't be able to drive up my ramps to change oil anymore.

Another factor is that I have the stock PP rubber stretched onto my M350 wheels so the sidewalls aren't exactly vertical as meatier rubber would be so the fender gap seems more pronounced, especially at the angle.

[MENTION=9985]BMR Tech[/MENTION], I can't comment on function of either the springs or the cradle lockouts as of right now - the building the car is in is essentially snowed in, and there's at least a foot of snow and ice on the driveway. I have to say that the parts all fit perfectly, I cannot wait until spring to get it out! :D

Wheel spacers would/should help with the "gap" look. :thumbsup:

No need for spacers on the M350 wheels unless you want poke.

Check the dedicated M350 thread for many, many pics of other cars running the staggered 19s.....it's the stretched PP tires throwing things off in the picture.

;)

No worries Bud. But from this pic, it all looks stock. Has to be the angle..:thumbsup:

Keep in mind the car has yet to be driven on the new springs, so it still has to settle fully.

Another potato pic, you can better see the stretched out tires also. More pics to come when I can get it outside with a real camera.

Yeah, I see what you're saying about the stretched tire now. Any issue with the install or was it pretty easy to do on your own?

The only real problem I ran into was not having the right tool for the center strut nut up front. :headbonk:

Other than that it was a pretty routine deal.

Awesome! How you liking them?

I've had them for a few months now but I love everything about them. I love the drop and I love the ride so much better. This paired with your cradle lockout kit was shockingly so much better. So thank you again you have created a new lifelong customer and fan!

So I should be getting around to having the 89/82 springs installed as winter rolls out of Chicago. I dont care for the look of the tires tucked in. The springs alone wont fix that I assume. Spacers? On a stock PP what size would push the wheels out just a bit, none to very very little poke. :)
