not sure if these pic helps... but you can tell there isnt alot of room, maybe i say 2 fingers the most in the front, and like 2 /2 fingers in the rear... then again i have subs in the trunk that weight the car down, but not by much.

Aside from the fact that it looks much better, how did the ride change? Is it tighter?

After the drop, it definitely increase handling which includes easy cornering and less body roll. The ride is a little harsher but not much and still comfy. Add on the swaybars and some new tires and your ride will handle like mutherf*cker!!

Comptech sucks donkey get some tiens hehehe. I got comptech it's super low in the back Unevens my car. Comptech is good springs. They don't give you much of a bounce you really can't tell going stock to comptech for ride comfort except a little better handling. Looks alot nicer than have a raise up TL
