I am Back!
Thanks Lamar (am I spelling that right??)
not lowered yet. I have to burn off the oversized tires and get some smaller, more rounded profile tires before I can lower on current wheels. The 555 extreme's are very "square" tires and the fact I am running 255's in the rear is causing some rubbing on stock springs.
Once I switch tthe tires out, I may be able to go back to my comptech Adj. Springs and drop it an inch or so.
So, is my car more or less aggresive than I was describing it?? it lacks a wing and other aggro items but it def. turns heads

+48 a bit low for S fittment
so my next tire choice will have to have rounded profile and I will have to step down to 245 to stretch the top of the profile back a little.
the wheels should have been 17's as well instead of 18's but I was shopping around and this deal came up and I had to move quickly because it was one of my top choices as far as maker/style/color was concerned and the price was off the charts crazy good.

Intesting question about what makes some S's aggressive looking while others leave you thinking mmmm sexy. I'm not sure i can put my finger on it, but i know i frequently get strong impressions of one or the other when looking at peoples S's.

You shouldn't have any rubbing issues with a 245 rear and -2 + -camber.

Rob, the last time i saw your car, i'd put it in the sexy category 
You know what might be an interesting excercise? Every month do a poll spotlighting maybe three local S's and have people vote sexy, aggressive, etc, and more importantly ask them to try to define what gives them that impression. Could be fun.
