Lowering just the rear...

Yeah, I did it. 3-4" drop!




Ok, so I was taking home 600 sq ft of new flooring for the house at the time. Talk about squatting...surprised it dropped so much and yet never bottomed out on the drive back. Could definitely feel the weight through the engine and brakes though. Had about 1100 lb of cargo and 400 lb of human in the car.

10 bucks off per pack, no limit! Getting half the house now, will do the other half some time down the road (probably next time it's on sale).

I know costco has an awesome deal going on but unforchantly not many colors to choose from. I am gonna be putting in laminate flooring in about 2 months and costco doesn't have the color my wife wants :-(

Indeed, near me they only have 4 types, but luckily the lighter textured type fits the wife's needs exactly. Check out Ikea if you have one near you...while some of their furniture is definitely cheap (you get what you pay for), their flooring tends to be very durable and well-priced. My brother bought his flooring from the as-is section of the store over the course of a year and ended up paying less than a buck per sq-ft for great quality stuff. I wish I had his patience.

Now you know what its like to drive an American SUV. Those things are always +5000 lbs with about the same power to weight ratio, braking, and handling you had from your RDX from Costco.
