BMR springs 2" drop not 1" I just received my BMR springs last week and installed the rears Friday, They were suppose to be 1" drop (what I wanted) when I measured the wheel well lip it has droped it 2" in the rear? I figure they will settle a bit more. Has any one used their springs and did you end up with 1" or ?. didn't install the fronts because I don't want to go through the work to just take them off if they are too low 
. Thanks.
. Thanks.

with it on rear you are also experiencing a little rear weight distribution adding to the drop by installing front springs it should level out and raise up a little

Yea the front is higher im sure, therefore the wieght is being transfered in the back. Think of it as when your jacking up the front of the car, and the back end begins to squat.

Install the fronts before you do anything else. How can you say that BMR springs lower the car 2" when you only have 1/2 the kit put on. My car lowered 1 1/4" once the springs settled

What I said was it lowered the rear 2", There is hardly any diff between front and rear height with the BMR rears and stock front springs, My car measured 2" higher in the rear when I started. If the front was highter than the rear them I could understand the weight shift issue. If it was only 1.5" or so I could understand BUT! 2" seems a bit off. NOt flaming BMR I have other equipment on my car of BMR's and like it! just wondering if any one else has the same issue.
