Yes it does but they will bust you for it in a heartbeat. I've gotten several of them. And unfortunatley the bracket was alreeady on the car when I took delivery I was a lol upset bout that. Cause I could have gotten one of those craigs brackets or a stow and go.

Go-Fast, how far did you lower it? I am seriously thinking about doing it, just a little concerned about alignment issues. I noticed yours looks a little cambered.... or maybe it was the pictures. Did you get caster camber plates?

It's 1 1/2 in back 1 in front. It may be a lil off but I have no cc plates and it don't appear to need them as I get more miles If I notice the tires wearing badly I'll get cc plates and an alignment.

Oh so you didn't do a alignment when you put them on? Okay, I've talked to my mechanics and they will do the springs and then align it. I just bought new tires and don't want to mess them up. :) Thanks for your help

Are those 17s or 18s? For whatever reason, 18s look small (to me) on the 2010s.

18's are too small on the s197's period

other problem is with that style wheel, with the deep dish, it makes them look even smaller

They say anytime you lower it more than an inch it's recommended to correct the camber so you don't get uneven tire wear. I got the bolts for the front of mine and they will correct up to 1 3/4".

Yeah I agree u should get an alignment I just don't drive mine enough to care at the moment. When spring comes I will. The wheels are 18x9 18x10's

and I think they are perfect.
