I like it. What irks me,is that after i lowered mine, the stock rims seemed to sit just a little deeper in the wells. Made the thin OEM rim look even gaukier.
You noticed this too, PK?

half the point of lowering a car is to put the rims deeper in the wheel well isn't it?[:I]

Dont know, that's why I was asking.
I personally don't like it (when the rims are that deep in the wells), thats all.
PK to clarify, I love the and your cruiser dropped.
