The wheels are ADV One Track Spec 5.0, 20x9 & 20x11, the rear spoiler is a MPD1. I have lots of pics but I travel a lot and they are at home. I had a thread on the wheels a while back, you can search for it under my user name.

I had BMR lower spring for 3000 miles, during that time , I checked alignment 3 times, every time springs get lower cause out of alignment cost $300. I am finally switch to KW v1 coil over, going to check alignment next week to see what happen.

Hotchkis 1" convertible drop springs. I like them and have had them for two years now.

At justice Pete.. I have to challenge the heating of metal being better by gas vs electricity inverter based metal induction heaters are far superior than any gas fired oven. Inverters don't care about irregularities in power. Since the early 80s inverters have used power factor correction caps. These induction biased heaters are accurate to the .000 I have to believe that a gas regulator can be dialed in that precise. I've repaired the power supply or inverter on many different type of metal heaters for various applications far more sensitive than a spring. Not to mention the waste of fossil fuel that big ass oven uses. These 3phase inverters pull less than 12amps per leg when heating pipe to over 1200f. They can heat a 12 foot 12 inch dia. Pipe in seconds accurate to the .000. This pipe handles the steam from a steam power station.
