My front is sitting at 24" and the back is about 24 1/4" on the BC coilovers. I'm also on 18's and I have been getting slight tire rub on large bumps. Let me know if you notice any tire rub on yours. What brand do you have?

I actually bent a section of my wheel wells up to make more tire clearance lol.

I'm going to roll my fenders in the back this weekend because I do rub on nasty road humps. I'm sporting Ark DT-P's.

I can't show you that.That would be as if god showed you how he created everything,and he has yet to show that. lol.I'd have to take it apart and compare it to a stock Ksport.A LOT is off though.

hahaha it's not just that though, it makes driving more fun (more go-kart like), accel and brake a lot more flat (which improves your straight line drag times), and the shocks are made for a spring rate of a lowered spring.

Who said i was on stock struts and shocks? My current setup on street tires snags 2.1 60'. Minimal wheel hop and rides like a normal ksport/sportline car. Have to know what your doing.

all in all, for the price I paid I can't complain. I need to raise my car once the winter comes so...if anything by next spring I'll sell them for more than I paid (you don't understand the deal I got) and get some better coils for next to nothing (ksports or stance)
