I just put them on my car to finish off my look.

Mike or Dan's?

Mike's - got a link?

Are you sure they are all the way down? Mine arent all the way down (close to it) and my car looks like it sits a little lower than yours. What are your camber settings btw? Wondering how much camber its taking to clear that 9.5" up front. Looks great BTW!

Edit: Just saw you are running around -2.5 degrees up front. Looks great!

Am I sure? I don't remember installing my suspension with my eyes closed, so yes I'm sure.

But thanks.

Rated M, are you running any spacers? If not, have you had any rubbing issues? I only ask because I see that Apex recommends spacers for that size setup in the front. Thanks.

No spacers up front, but other coilovers might need them. I have rubbing from being so low and from the track, but under normal driving and at a normal height, you'll be fine (assuming you also have camber up front).
