nobody cares if you have some big lip that gives you no front bumper clearance but you still have a 2 finger gap in the wheel wells and it strikes you you dont have enough and your car is a 4x4 ready to go mudding. its all about -2 finger gap on 15s in teh caboose. The new d2 coilover shock design (from bings warrenty) allows you to properly lower the rear to this height, and im running 1/4 inch of preload. OMGBBQ its so low that my sway bar, floor, subframe and frame scrape sometimes… ![http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v216/JDMHippo/slammed1.jpg](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v216/JDMHippo/slammed1.jpg) ![http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v216/JDMHippo/slammed2.jpg](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v216/JDMHippo/slammed2.jpg) NOT LOW ENOUGH ---

being sooper low isnt that cool. i have a healthy wheel gap up front because my wheels come out beyond the fender…lol Chris corner-weighted my car at the college last night, it doesnt sit crazy low, and he wasnt able to get it exact, but whatever… serves more of a purpose than scraping frame ---
