yah, mine scrapes that bottom diffuser looking thing on the front
aero kit too sometimes when going super fast through a turn and
driving over a bump or something at mid turns. no biggie.

we're measuring wheel gap vs sidewall to make our street cars
look better. (and if you do it right, the car will even handle
better than stock).

no, you just need to know the right streets to have fun in.

Maybe I'd look into that then...
P.S. lowering a car in Chicago? I know those so-called highways, you're a man who likes to live dangerously.

I was waiting to get the blown KW V2s back from KW before I installed them. Now I have the KWs back, but I need time to re-install them Who came up with working 5-6 days a week anyway?

Update on the Teins, after messing around with them a bunch they are going back to the drawing board to re-work them. All for the good I am told. So the word is that the shock will be revalved to a softer compression and the spring rate will be changed. After putting a bunch of miles on it we could'nt get it dialed in enough to be happy.
Keep you posted as to what the results are.
