    I would rather lose by a mile because I built my own car, than lose by an inch, because someone else built it for me. Your car is your story, so don't let someone else write the book.

    So I finally lowered the damn thing. I went with GR2's and SSC springs. Overall the ride isn't much different from stock, although it feels that way considering my stock struts were completely shot.


    BOOM!

    POW!

    rear is higher than I'd like it to be :/

    for the sake of comparison:
    before:

    after:



    Again, the rear is kinda disappointing. Some people say springs settle and others say they settle as soon as they're installed. Oh well. Regardless, it looks better than it did and i needed dis sh*t.

    yeah the rear looks better than in the picture even now...itll be a bit before its completely settled. the ride is honestly pretty comfortable. my old struts were totally shot though so anything is better. did you get the antipogo washers?

    Yeah I did. I drive in the city though so that may be it haha. I feel every little bump with the 45 sidewall + lowered. You're ganna love the drop when it's fully settled. Check out my page and you'll see where mine was when I lowered it and how it was after

    I decided not to sell the wheels and I just put them on the other day. They look 10x better now that the car is lower. So here's an update picture.

    a couple months ago...stock ride height

    and now ^

    they actually don't always look like that lol...I had to move a set of stock wheels and they were in the trunk/back seat when I took these.
    it's realistically probably 1/2 inch higher...i hate it

    and thank you!
