Here's mine. I have F&F Type 1's. I love the ride. I'm still working on getting my stance right though.



With 17's.


With 15's for winter time.

Here's my car. I had to raise it about 2" when I got these wheels (ugh 17's). Hopefully when spring comes I can lower it back with my new 16's.









right after installed them (not settled in yet)

Type 2's are dampening adjustable, and the Type1's are not.

Actually...my type 1s were pretty damn annoying to adjust at first, the front the fork was just a tad too tight on the bottom of the coil so it took a lot of force to take it off the shock fork to adjust it...both sides were like that this made me strip some of the paint off the front but meh w/e not like you can see it anyways. The rear is also pretty annoying to adjust, because you have to spin the bottom of the coil and the damn LCA gets in the way a lot but other than that, they ride ****ing awesome, and can go very low.

Thinking of picking up a set of these, but want to know how low they go without messing with the preload? If anyone has any input, I would appreciate it.
