ok, I dropped the car with some KW variant 3's and wow I am impressed with the look and performance. Fixed the aggressive offset problem and the ride is so comfortable. When I corner it feels like the car is glued to the road. There is no rubbing with the wheels, but the air damn is a issue.

Think I have it set too low? My next step is a camber kit to help the rear end. It's a bit too much of a negative camber. I am going to get 305's on the rear and get rid of the stretched 285's

No, this is kind of sticking out a bit:

Looks way better lowered.

wow looks WAYYYY better! :P

wow! lowering makes all the difference in the world. I would have sworn the offset was too aggressive when it was stock but after lowering it tucks right in. Looks great!

Jason -

could we get some more pics looking down the sides of the car to get a better idea of the flush fit of the wheels? Thx

wow that look's hot now.Baller went with KW ha!
when people think of doing wheels they got to think if they are going to lower it some day.
If it sit ok before you drop it.After you drop it your'll going to end up buying spacer,and with a wrong spacer your going to have problem.
NICE! WHAT'S NEXT? lol:ughdance:

Have you tried this OEM 10" wheel on a lowered 370? Maybe it will tuck with some drop?

It is lowered, 1.25 inches with megan racing coil overs. Has -2.0 camber in front. It was on jackstands when I shot it. I'll reshoot that with a couple of different angles when I get it off the jackstands and post to this thread.

What offsets did you go with on the VS124s?
