It has been a little while since i have taken any new pics of my tib. So i washed it this morning and waited til almost sundown to take some pics. I should have gotten out earlier the pictures came out kind of dim but oh well. The only real thing that i've done differently to it has been removing the factory mud guards, and i just got new Nitto Neo Gen tires put on 2 weeks ago. Thoughts and constructive criticism wanted =).
These last two came out blurry and fuzzy. I was playing with the shutter effect. And then the camera about went dead...

Looks good, I like your rims how much were they and what kind.
Your car also loost good w/o the mud flaps, I took mine off once but I put em back on cuz I like to go driftin in the sand, lol.
Keep up the good work.

The rims are SSW Eternitys, they aren't produced anymore i'm pretty sure. And i got them bundled with hankook k106 tires and shipped for just under 800 dollars. The hankook's basically just failed me recently and i have the Nittos now and they are amazing.

i don't think i ever asked, but how is the ride on the NEX coilovers? how well over stock does it handle? is it super stiff over bumps and stuff, or comfortable over bumps.. i was thinking of getting them in the future for my car, but if they are as stiff as my sportlines, i would cry... lol

The ride is a lot firmer than stock, but by no means is it rough unless you are going excessively fast on the interstate and hitting lots of gaps in concrete or expansion joints on bridges. The handling is absolutely superb, and the struts absorb the bumps and does not bounce. I've had several people with ebay coilovers or some type of lowered suspension ride in my car and they all wanted to know what i was using because mine rode so well.

thanks for the quick, good response.. i would sacrifice a bit of handling of my sportlines for a bit better, more comfortable ride.. plus i want to lower my car another inch (right now its 2" in front, and 2.4" in back.) i want to lower it 3" in front, 3.25" in back. the NEX say they have adjustment from 0"-4" lower than stock.
