    Did you have any rubbing issues when you had your coilovers on? Any rolling of the fenders or anything? The cwest kit is for the 2012? Does it come BP painted and where can you get it? Alot of questions I know haha... kinda like the rear better than the Prius Plus kit too

    No issues with rubbing..just make sure you get the correct size wheels! Yes the kit is available on ebay.. Fits perfect and paint is spot on!

    Yea I have 18x8.5 +40 which might make me roll and pull some... wanted the wheels bad and could only get in a +40 instead of the +45.. 225/40/18 also

    Thanks Bino! Work in progress still.. Got a few more things I need to do and the car will be complete.. Have a set of work emotions in 17 that I am debating on putting on the car.. And I still have to put my coilovers back on, fog lights, and a rear bumper protector.. And I think it will be complete!

    17's might look small (because of the body kit)... or you might want to put in some spacers just to make it come out a bit.....

    btw... you have PM... ;)

    @bzyrice How often would your coilovers shocks blow out? Is it normal or does it jus happen over time with all coilovers?

    honestly I have never had a coilover go bad o ANY of my cars except the prius!! (I have had many cars too!) I couldnt believe it. I do know the guy I bought them from tracked his prius.. so that is probbaly why. I purcahsed another set just to replace the one. Just havent had time to install it.
