How low do I go?

I'm getting my coil overs installed tomorrow and I need to know how low everyone with pro kits or sport kits are so I can base how low I go with the coils. keep in mind that its a DD and I'm still on stock rims and wheels... hint hint G

I think the sport kit is like .9 in the front and 1.2 in the back and the pro kit is 1.2 in the front and 1.9 in the back?
Let me know if I'm off. I need it as a base to figure out how low to go.

P.S. whoever else is lowered let me know that the measurements are on your cars too

sportline is 1.7 f and 1.2 r
thats what im on , id like to be a bit lower tho , but id kill the splitter if i was

whats lower sport or pro line?

sportline

pro is 1.2 f and .9 rear i think

icic so I should look to lower around that height?

yea if you want , its a good height for me , but if you dont have a lip you could go lower and be ok

well I might be getting the v-lip or similar

^Then you can raise it back up ;)

I say 1.9 Front and 1.4 rear, that's what I would've ran on my lancer if I had coils. Or even LOWA!

slammmm that bitchhhh!!! hope you got a camber kit ;) unless the kit comes with it!

no it sure didn't come with one and nothing was said about needing them either.

anyone have an extra kit? Infamous didnt you have one?

I can get em, just takes two weeks to get em in stock. Can't remember the price though, I think it was $60. I can confirm if necessary, let me know.

problem with that is im getting my coils installed tonight

That's not a problem, the issue is the alignment. If you get it done now, you'd still need to get it done after you install the camber-kit. Those coils don't come with a camber-kit? Are you sure?

not that I can see. you think they would add it for being $1250 and also trying to call nextmod and their not even picking up

so I went to nextmod they have them but its a minus, plus 1 degree difference all together.
so I might not need them

Also they are only chaging me $50 more to install my rear sway bar

ok Im a noob

- Mono-tube shock design
-

30 levels of damping force adjustment, adjust compression/rebound
-

Pillowball mounts and adjustable camber plates included (where applicable)
- Adjustable rear camber plates available
- Separate full length height adjustable
- One year warranty
- Rebuildable

Very noob of you! :study:

The only way to learn is by doing
Ask lots of questions....be there for the install if you can, to learn more about it. If you haven't done so already, do some research on suspension (caster, camber and toe) and get familiar with all of it. I did the same thing in the beginning

I watched the install pretty much from start to finish (done yesterday). asked a lot of questions. asked if it was ok to adjust myself, which they said it was very easy. I've read the instructions like I million times. I'm letting them settle then get the camber adjusted probably tomorrow or monday (weekend if I can).

Excellent Post pics when you have em!

If you plan on going any lower do it now, because once you adjust your camber/alignment and make any changes ie: lower/raise the suspension it changes the entire suspension geometry. So you'll have to get it re-aligned after adjusting the height, so it's better to set-it to the height you want from now to avoid paying for an alignment multiple times...

thats tru well APH still can tune it for free as in height so after the weekend I'll make my choice.

tho the height right now it pretty low I might just leave it as it is a DD

^True, some different (larger) rims will probably make it "appear" a lil more lower

i think bigger rims actually increases the ride height

i.e. it raises the car back up
