Hehe. I vaguely remember that. :D Sounds like something I'd do. ;)

I don't think it'd look silly at all. In fact, I think lowering the VY without rims would still look pretty decent.
How many inches are you thinking of going?

2.5 may be a little too low. I have 2" all around and occasionally, if I take off a little hard, the rear wheels will scrape against the arches. Not to mention the trouble I have with speed humps.

your back wheels scrub with only having it lowered 2", is that 2" from stock height ? how wide are your wheels? either you have exceptionally wide wheels or the offset is way out there, When I had 19x8's with 245's it didn't scrub at all (same height it is now) and now I have 20x 8.5's on my car and let's just say it's a lot lower than 2"s and all I did was roll the rear guards.

Hey man.. nice looking car..

a few things though..

1. your jc sticker isnt straight(dont worry either is mine)
2. tail lights look a bit to bright.. stock tinted ones would look better IMO
