Here are some pics with H&R Race springs and Billy sports. 18x8.5 et35 rims iirc.

I'll try different angles. Hope this helps...









It handled very well...kinda like a train on rails. I deffinately recommend H&R springs. When I get another ti, its gonna be H&R race or coilovers...

Same setup as james:
  1. http://www.318ti.org/gallery/showfull.php?photo=6947
  2. http://www.318ti.org/gallery/showfull.php?photo=6948
  3. http://www.318ti.org/gallery/showfull.php?photo=6916
  4. http://www.318ti.org/gallery/showfull.php?photo=7112
  5. http://www.318ti.org/gallery/showfull.php?photo=7114
  6. http://www.318ti.org/gallery/showfull.php?photo=6930

Serves it's purpose for street use. Though it's too soft for auto-x or trax.
