Default Changed from old school to new school

I decided to swap out my old torque thrust wheels for some 17"chrome tt2's. Here are some before and after shots. I didn't put the new front spoiler on yet.

it looks kind of high in the front. Maybe you should lower the car just a tad. I think it would help the stance.

Default Old school wheels

If you were closer, I would buy those old wheels . Can't wait to put the Torque Thrust II on my car but then again I'm an old guy in a rut not willing to change.

How are you guys lowering the front without causing it to rub? I hated the stance on my car and ended up cutting off half a turn on the spring. Afterward, I started to bottom out on every bump. Of course, I had larger tires too, so that probably didn't help. I put uncut springs back in. I hate how high it sits, but I guess I'll have to live with it if I don't want the front to bottom out.

if you buy a 1 inch lowering spring and its rubbing you are running way too big of a front tire
