Hey 02Z28LS1......... Do you have adjustable rear LCA's? Sure looks to me like your rear wheels aren't near centered in the openings and was wondering if you have adjustalbes and that they might be set on the long side. Might be a trick of the camera or my eyes, but it looks odd.

Looks great, especially in the final picture you can really notice the differece. In the last before picture it looked like you could use your car for off-roading.

why does it seem there's not much of a drop in the pics??
Well I'm gonna keep the prokit for sure but debating on shocks right now..damn bilsteins!! It's either the bilsteins (hopefully) or the kyb agx...These pics did it for me.. yah I know, the quality of ride, etc. is the purpose of shocks/springs but I like many other have different preferences..
Grab a set of shoes and widen the meats.. that would make a difference in the appearance w/ the springs

yeah, the pics don't really do it justice, i think it's just the differences in the angles.....but you can see by the measurements that it did actually drop it a good bit, and will get a little lower once the springs settle some, also.
but the rear is definitely more noticeable than the fronts, tho

It's the LCA's that need adjusted which is a separate issue.

A few points:
This is a classic example of how your eyes can play tricks. As was mentioned, the car is lowered and measurements were supplied to show just how much.
We do not want cars on the ground, because they do not work well slammed down.
Stock wheels tend to lessen the effect some. There are plenty of other pics around too that show the drop more clearly, which I'll spare you from linking unless someone wants me too.
