dunno yet, gonna have it adjusted when i get there....

they will slam it because even if you tell them not too... they slam everything!

id be surprised if their not cutting coils off them on top of being at lowest setting. haha

i prolly wont keep it any lower then Comptech's... but I needed the ability to make it higher in the winter.

I will lower it more then that in summer if i can... but i dont think I can tuck at all cuz it will rub. well see....

You can make it as stock height or even a little higher I believe, at least with the updated upper mounts...hey Soopa did you get like rubbery uppermounts or did you get like a plastic kind??? because the plastic ones are the newly updated ones...these are NOT plastic, just looks and feels like it...it is weird because these four little plastic looking things hold up the entire car's weight...I was very skeptical at first, but it holds up really well...btw Soopa, make sure they put the car on a level place and see that the gaps are the same for each side...or are you suppose to get the jacking points level??? Im kinda split on this one...anyone know???
