I'm new in the forum. woohooo!
I live in Quebec!
Here's my new Leaf...
Mod :
- TEIN - H-Tech Springs SKK32-G1B00 (35mm drop)
- 18x7.5 Kia Optima wheel (46 offset) + 5mm spacer(for now)
- 215/45R18 Continental ExtremeContact DWS

****EDIT 2013-04-23****
Now I've added some 35mm spacer in the back and 25mm in the front. It looks nicer when it's flusher to the car
Here's a comparison picture with another LEAF (winter tire with stock wheel)
My Leaf is the snow (winter tires and -20c outside)
and the latest picture
Thint: 5 to 15% in the front (I don't remember)
35% in the back
50% in the rear windows
RANGE:
Surprise... I didn’t notice any difference.
Note:
- 18inch wheels are heavier
- The wheels are flush to the car (better aerodynamic coefficient for the highway)
- The car is 35mm lower (better aerodynamic coefficient for the highway)
- Tires are harder (41 psi in the tires instead of 36 recommended)
