I have 2 questions. Is there any rub of the tires? And I know you already said that it does effect the ride quality, but by how much? I know thats a objective question but is there a big drop off in ride smoothness or a small one?

i rub occassionaly b.c i dropped it so low. it only rubs on the mud guard. the ryde quality is not that bad but its still bumpy. if you need the oem ride quality i wouldn't suggest doing it.

FINALLY! Someone else to take the initiative to get the coilovers to work. Nice drop bchi! Looks very V.I.P.. Now lets put our heads together for the centrifugal supercharger. Still having CPU issues but will get it done, so 380hp ES350 not too far away.

That is one sick ES350. That drop truly makes a world of a difference compared to stock.
