That looks fkn awesome! Wish I could afford coilovers right now. How does it handle with them? What spring rate did you go with?

My camber was a half a degree out. Could not adjust it anymore. Strong arms will be coming in the future but for now, long as I rotate the tires regularly I shouldn't see any wear.
