I just read the thread you posted on adjusting the rears. Did you end up figuring anything out? I think it looks pretty good in the first picture you had posted...i don't think it was slammed. Looks like OEM sports suspension on non xi...

Not looking to Auto-X. Just want to be a little lower and reduce the body roll and bounce.

My guess is the springs that come with the coils will be fine.

I just cranked the preload up. That's basically the height adjustment. When I put my winters on, fortune requested I get them the serial numbers to verify I have the correct parts.

You're right, it looks fine, but I wanted to keep the nose and rear the same ride height

Anyone else have these now? Just curious what most are using for spring rates? I decided this is the best route.
