Did that i4 come with the tri-stitched steering wheel? Or is that a mod you've done?

Nice! Seems like the Eibach springs sit lower than the ACS ones? How is the ride? Does it bottom out on the bump stops?

Ride is very compliant to be honest. With that said I've been driving lowered cars for a long time. Definitely no bottoming out. Also irrc the drop estimate is the same as ACS. I believe there photos are with 19s though.

The rears are lowered by adding adjustable links instead of springs and as mentioned in my other postthe set up is very compliant.

One of the best looking EVs I've seen lately. Well done.

Some proper aftermarket wheels would really set it off.

Thank you! I'll say the photos really don't do the wheels justice. The alloy is so bright it pulls away from the black spokes on the wheels. In person they look really good. Super detailed with come concave to them. Hard for an aftermarket to beat them although I'd love better offsets.
