K/W is a good suspension but the Bilstein PSS9's have good reviews (some natural bias since I have them).

I took it out after marysville and romped on it hard again to see if anything had changed. There is some hope. After the kit settle the rear is approx 8mm too low and now I'm only rubbing the back. As soon as it warms up I'll take it back up and see if it gets any better. The fronts with .5 degrees more camber in the UK setup seems to have pretty much eliminated rubbing up front.... or maybe since is lower in the back I'm getting a false negative. we'll soon see

Basically word to the wise. If you get 18X7.5 48+ with 225/40 with a 20mm drop you won't rub on everyday roads... but it will make noises when driving aggresively. Unless your running 10k springs that is.

If I look at where I'm rubbing it's sooooo close to the edge it took me 5 minutes to look for it. It's a very small corner of the front section of the fender.

Well I think Im gonna go with the Mercury SIlver. But wouldnt you know (im sure you guys do) the Merc Silver has got to be the hardest color to find. And just my luck someone on this forum was sell a set fo brand new in the box with the correct offsets, but they sold on April 4th. Doh! The search is on, let me know if you guys know of any.

check the for sale forums and shoot evolution motorsports a pm. they are probably one of the larger volk dealers.
MS on sebring / silverstone is a nice color combination. My friend had MS TE37's on his car before and it looked great
