Sexy, it's low!!
finally had some time to do a little swap, obviously the front isn't down because there is no motor, I already can barely get my hand in there and I could (if there was room) go down another 3 inches. I will do final height adjustment with a motor in and the 255s on......

Usually when you're going with coilovers, it's not to make the ride smooth and comfortable.
