Car looks fantastic.

What BBS Wheels are these? Also what size front / rear?
Also, any springs? and the exhaust? Sorry for so many questions. But car looks AMMAZING.

Supposed to be about an inch front/rear but the rear looks to be a bit less that that.

Thanks, I stare at it all the time! I like the emblem so I'm thinking about painting it black so it blends in.

$1k with alignment, $800 without. Higher than what I was expecting but it was actually less that what other places quoted me. I think that's the ballpark for a good indy. Dealer quoted me around $1,600.

Hat's off to those that can do this themselves, I do as much DIY work as I can but this was beyond what I have time/tools/skills for.

Your car looks amazing!

May I ask what the dimension of the wheels are? width? ET? Tire Size? Looks absolutely perfect.

thanks in advance/Niklas

.
how long ago was the install maybe suspension hasn't fully settled? My C2S has same springs, it sat much lower. But the S is 10 mm lower start out with.

Car look very nice.

Thanks guys. Wheels are BBS CH-R, 19x8.5 and 19x12, full specs are on the tirerack just pick C4 as the model. Don't remember the offsets right now, think it was was +57 and +.44.

The drop hasn't changed much, I used the oem center caps but will go back to BBS ones this year
