actually its likely because you're running those sofa-soft DF210s on old stock shocks, not because of the RCAs. RCAs tend to increase available travel, not decrease.
the fact that you're using an RCA to lower the car instead of fix the geometry means that you're making your front suspension geometry WORSE than it was from being lowered.

For those wondering what the XXR 526's in 20's running the standard offsets look like on a UCF21:

Finally had time to swap all the parts I had sitting around from my old ucf10 and shaved/rolled the front fenders and full shave on the rear. Running effectively +15 fronts and +0 rears
The gold emblems were bugging me from the first day, so I blacked all of them out.
But is it me, or are the middle mufflers on the 2nd gen, lower compared to the 1st gen? I scrape them alot more than I used to compared to the old car at the same height.

I'm thinking maybe just cut out the middle mufflers and just add in a straight pipe in that section with the rear stock mufflers for the time being, money is kinda tight for the time being with my baby girl on the way very soon. That should help with it hopefully. Because I have my dampening set to the 2nd click from the softest there is more travel, but I never had this problem with the old one.

my 99 LS
Here is my 99 LS400 I picked this up in December from a family member who bought it knew it has 90k miles. Has 5% tint all the way around and 35% on windshield. Working on restoring the paint. Then looking to put on some chrome 18's oem wheels and maybe lowering springs not into dropping it to much. Also added double din dvd touchscreen 12 sub and component speakers with 5 channel amp. plan on adding another sub and amp. Pictures of inside coming once ive cleaned it out busy weekend.

Put my new wheels on tonight and took her out to check for rubbing. Heres a little teaser from my buddy's instagram, still need to pull the metal some more so I can drop it maybe half and inch. Car is currently in a state of disassembly so pardon the dual exhausts on only one side
Specs are 18x9.5 -1
18x11 -8
