Lowered the 7 today (before/after pictures)
Springs: H & R Sport.
Shocks/Struts: Bilstein HD.
Wheel size: 17x9; 17x10
Tires: 245/40; 275/40
Time to complete: 2 hrs
I think the combo lowered the car 1.5" all around.
Minor issue: 1. Front tires rub inner fender liner if steering fully turned; 2. Front spoiler barely rub steep drive way (ok if go in at an angle).
Over all: Love the look comparing to before. And "TIGHT".

Beside the look...I think she will handle much more better...the stock shocks/struts aren't that stiff comparing to the Bilsteins.
