Last one. I will have nice pics later. These were taken reel quick to give some sort of reference. Again I am very happy with these springs. I would purchase them again in a minute.

Thanks for the pics, its kind of hard to tell with it being dark. But I am sure people will get the idea. Did you measure the drop before and after? I have a 350 rwd and I have TeinS springs and its about 1.5 avg drop front to rear. For a 2" drop seems like the car sits high from the last pics? Why is this??

How high is the front fender line and rear fender line off the ground? I want to measure mine also just to see what the difference is.

Thanks

The Fender in front and rear is 25" at the arch. I wish I did take pics before and after ...and again after they settle, but I was lazy.

these are very helpful pics, i think i will go with these. They don't look that agreesive on the AWD.

Passnu2, i think the reason why it looks higher is becuase the AWD's sits higher than the RWD. What's the measurement of your from the ground to the fender line?

I measured...its the same but doesnt look like it?
I am 25 1/2 to the fender front

I am 26 1/4 to the fender rear




Maybe its because you have the OEM rims on and its throwing it off??? Well there is hard info to see with numbers. Looks like the AWD does sit higher and these springs put you around where the TeinS puts me on the RWD. Would be curios to see someone that has the TeinS to measure also.

Hope this is helpful!

By the looks of it, the car may be sitting at a small slope in front of the garage.
