I am trying to see visually how this combination looks and if possible some measurements of ride height.

Thanks a lot!

Nice. What size rims are you running?

Thanks guys, sorta full stats, they are Satin Bronze Forgeline VX1Rs in R spec 19X11 and 19X11.5. I can never remember the offsets though. They are around here somewhere.
Thanks for pics. Is it just me or PS4S’s seem wider than MPSS’s? I know these are different sizes but the front tires seem to be more square profile. Also what camber do you run up front? Any issues with rubbing the strut?

Next spring I should take a pic of the stock rear 305 PSS vs the front 305 PS4S to see. But yah I agree, I think they do have a squarer look to them over the PSS.

Also stock camber and no rubbing issues.

Stock camber should be fine. I am running -2.8 in the front and it runs very close to the strut (no rubbing at all but if the tire were a bit more square probably it would - on the other hand 30 profile has shorter sidewall so that might compensate)

Got mine on Nitto 305/30 series. Love the difference in every way...

I have to say I am envious. The lowered stance looks great but there is no way I could drive mine around on a lowered suspension without replacing my splitter every week. Air bags would be the only real option for me to get an aggressive ride height but clear speed bumps and get in and out of my own driveway. No chance I'll dump my magneride though.

I agree. Only reason I've lowered cars in the past is because they often come from the factory looking like SUVs. IMO I find the stock GT350 height to be perfect and the ride quality is pretty damn amazing with magnaride.

It depends on everything.

If you run a wider wheel, you will get a squarer profile on the tire. If you run a narrower tire and a wider wheel, you will get a rounder profile (stretch).

From what I have seen, the PS4S are very similar to the PSS but the shoulder tread is more similar to the PSC2. The shape of the sidewall doesn't seem to be much different, or different at all.
