I'm sitting about 24 3/4 in. (62.8 cm) fender to ground in the front, and 24 7/8 in (63.1 cm) fender to ground in the read. They still need to settle and will probably drop a tad lower but as of right now there is very minimal wheel gap and they are not tucked.

Moved from the photo sticky thread.


Watch out for speed bumps  :wink:

Looks quite odd when it is lowered, IMO.
Could it be used as a snow plough in the winter?

Thanks everyone,

I'm sure if you wanted to it could be used a snow plow =P.

As far as the coils: http://www.namotorsports.net/Koni/Suspension/Coilovers/Part-Number=KO1150-5080

ride is slightly stiffer then stock, other then that i feel a huge difference in the corners. And thanks for the heads up on the link, fixed it.
