Jeff I don't have pictures of my car but I can tell you that I have been driving my MCoup with H&R springs for about a year now and the car has settled nicely. I have approximately 1-1/2 inches of clearance between the front and rear fenders. I have not encountered any tire rubbing but you do need to be more careful when approaching dips and driveways. I have noticed when driving through strip malls, over speed bumps,if I'm not carefull I will hit the front lower enginge brace, other than this it's great. The car handles terrific and the difference is most noticable in hard cornering and off line acceleration (less of a dip of the rear end). Another bit of information some folks are adding rear camber corrective plates that will allow you to correct(changes a bit when you lower the car) the rear for better tire ware, I did not do this but I'm sure I will later.

In my opinion you should go for it. You'll be pleased.

Have Fun!
