If mine was at Jin3198's ride height, I wouldn't get up or off the driveway. Watch out for deep puddles for sure.

Thanks! Compared to my 1st gen at this height, I didn't have as much issue with the exhaust piping from what I remembered. But I'll prolly raise it up 1/2 inch in the next week or 2, with the baby coming soon and this is my DD, I'm sure I'll need to get to places that isn't very low car friendly. When I did the hose clamps, I gained about 1/2 inch more clearance.

its just pressure, alignment, tire choice, and driving style.

i got this kind of wear with ~ -3.5* of camber.

I just picked this up as a future donor. Going to swap the 1UZ into my corona when I finish restoring the body. Until then, I'll play with this.
