it hasnt settled yet, give it a couple weeks then you will see it.

exactly

 

ohhh...ok thanks...i was thinking that it would give an INSTANT drop but i guess not huh?

 

The S Tech's are an extremely subtle drop. I had the exact same reaction when i first put mine on. I had to actually look at before an after pics and i could see it a TINY bit.

Before (I couldn't find the straight side shot i looked at before):


After:


But as Honda_Andy said, when they settle, you will be extremely happy with them:

(Yes i know the bigger rim is part of why it fills in better, but you get the idea.)

 

hmm im rolling the super street set, and i think it might be the next one up, but i got a much more significant drop, i dont think yours should be that high, heres mine, on accord SE rims 205/55 tires

 

dang....thats the type of drop i like!!! how do you like those, AMJ?? idk if i can do that since i got a big a$$ lip kit but hey...main reason is i just dont want fender gaps.
