Yes you will see some definent traction benefit even in an unlowered vehicle. Here are the ones I am using. What I like about these are they are made geometrically correct so in an unlowered vehicle you can still use a stock length lca.

Car looks great man. But, is it just me, or is there a rather large gap in the fender to door area...

are you talking about the bottom on the front of the door?
If that gap was any smaller the door would rub. It's due to the side skirts which came on the car.

Hey, where'd you get your hands on a set of 4th Gen Collector's Edition wheels? I've been searching for a set for months now and haven't came up with anything.

As everyone else has said, awesome looking 3rd gen and list of mods made.
