D*** Ron, this is great stuff. I need to catch up! I can't believe you were able to get that kind of meat up under there. It really looks great and it seems like there is plenty of room. So no rolling of the fenders or issues on the backside with the coilovers? What size tires are you running, if you don't mind me asking. And the stance looks perfect. Any idea if you are the same height or higher than when you had the Swift springs? It definitely doesn't look lower and that is a good thing in my opinion.

Height is same as with the swift springs. The rears have not settled since I just dropped the car from jacking it up and have not rolled it back and forth. The top of the tire is still tucked even with the 12" wide wheel. There's about 5 mm of clearance between the tire and shock body, this is why I stayed with the rear divorced spring and shock setup. I think with the stock shocks, the tire will be closer to the shock's plastic dust cover. Tire size is 315.30.19 in the rears and stock size in the front. Good thing with the RC-F's rear fenders, they're already rolled from factory
so there's no lip at all. Ron

Nope, no typo there. I was surprised too that the 19x10 weighed more than the 19x12. I think it's because there's more material in the center (hub back pad) of the fronts compared to the rears. I just used a regular bathroom scale so give or take a pound maybe.

Awesome Ron, big meat rear is going to be sick. Let me know how the springs handle the extra grip. Pilot Sport cups too!!
