More likely you felt the difference between the tire profiles- 18" vs 19"

What are peoples ground clearance numbers after dropping thier ride (clearance from the lowest point under the car to the ground)? I think that is a useful metric. Fender to ground is useful but more of a cosmetic metric. Ground clearance is a better reference point so guys can tell if they are going to be scrapping the hell out the car or if they will only have occasional issues.

I have the Ark exhaust so I tend to scrape it more so than the front. I was actually too low on my KWs and raised it just to get up my driveway almost sideways.

Welcome to the site Alexis!
On top of that first pic it lists Eibach RWD, so it's an Eibach spring drop for RWD sedan, it's about 1.5" drop give or take a 1/4".

Wonder if that drop needed camber kit? Looks perfectly lowered.

On that spring, my camber specs were -2.3 out back without adjustment.

Is this list still accurate? Also, people should post their shock setup as well.

Nah...Last year I bought the H&R springs going by the list on the 1st page and every one came back and told that they would drop my car more than that easy. So take that list with a grain of salt.

Also H&Rs drop about the same, much lower than what's listed.
