In these pictures 205/50/r16 front 225/50/r16 rear. I'll be running 205/55/r15 front and 225/50/r16 rear though to even out the rake.
IMO:
The combination of the lowrider-deep low, the whale tail, and the Starions really sets this car apart as extremely fooking cool.
The whale tail is really an RX-7 IMSA racecar (edit: STYLE) aero piece, and it fits very well with the classic '80s Japanese Sports Car shape of the 89+ MKIII body - which as we all know looks better LOW. And the Starions - you can't get more '80s without a time machine.
All that I would change would be the hate-it oil cooler, and totally polish the Starions to a gleam.
Thanks for sharing - excellent work.

Um........... thanks for telling me what's on my own car...? Its actually just a Bomex replica wing. For a Supra.
But I agree, these cars need to be low

I did not mean to offend, I was simply rambling on about style. That spoiler is awesome, and I felt compelled to mention it's stylistic roots... but I did not intend to imply that it was an actual RX-7 IMSA artifact and now must apologize for my poor wording.

Rolled real flat it's not too bad about rubbing. It probably depends on how stiff your suspension is and how wide your tires are though. You could try adding a bit of camber or pulling the fenders, but it probably wouldn't look as good.
I raised the front about 1/4" and lowered the rear about 2" the other day. I'd say there's about 3 inches of lowering room in the front and about 2" more in the rear if you don't care about spring droop. In these pictures the fronts were at maximum low without drooping the springs and so were the rears. The wheels should be getting new tires and then I'll readjust everything to get them looking good
ehh it's ok. it's not like I launch my car in the air much and droop the suspension enough for the spring to come off the perch haha.
