I used to have the Racing Beat springs with Tokico shocks. Ride height measured ground to top of wheel well was 25 in. rear and 24-1/2 in. front. Stock ride height was at least 26 in., the RB springs lowered the car alot. I got rid of this set-up a few months ago because the RB springs were way too soft for that low of a ride height. I had prolems with bottoming alot and the front tires (245/45/16) rubbing on the top of the plastic fender liner. I was also hitting the bump stops in long sweeping turns.

Now I have the M2/AD coil overs with 550/450 lb/in Eibach ERS. They're adjusted to 25 in. ride height all around. No more bottoming and much better control, especially coming out of corners. Jack
