When I just put the S Techs on i had it realigned and it was good, but after a while it was weird again, actually come to think of it once I put the new wheels on i had the problem again.
At this point im just saying screw it gonna take them off the car take a little loss on it all and do what my original plan was which was coilovers.

coilovers are usually a good plan haha, hopefully that will work better for you. Which ones did you have in mind?

The megans look like they are a pretty solid coilover for the price too.

Hoping to get a stance like this, the front will be a lil lower than what this pic is, I know its a G35 but this is just a reference since it has the same wheels, and im defiently painting the wheels flat black, I just like the look too much.

I might be able to do something saturday night. I was planning on plasti-dipping my rims that day though. I have my conference tournament that morning.

I did my rims this weekend, but it took my until the 4th rim to get the technique down, so the first three look kinda shitty. So I have to redo them.

Seriously, congratulations! The feeling of accomplishment and realizing that you don't have to do any more school work will stay with you for a while.

Going for your masters if you choose to do so ... well ... I'm still thinking of working up to that myself.
