That FD is damn low. Is it just the angle the pics were taken at, or does it need some serious camber adjustment?

Rest assured.. The S-tech's will not drop your car that low.

With the stock wheels, you should be fine. It won't be as low as the car in the pictures you posted above.

BTW, here's a shot of the stock rims with the S-Tech's (using 245's in Kumhos):

My fenders are rolled because of my street rims, but I didn't have any rubbing with the stock rims before rolling the fenders.
