Install Eibach pro kit 6388.001/2 F/R
Purchased at Stillen along with SPC toe adjusters for my '10x.
Here you can see the actual drop before and after. I did the rears first and the fronts ~4 hours later. I suspect maybe the rears settled a bit in 4 hours. The fronts look lower than this today (Wednesday) as this was done on Saturday and the after pictures were taken immediately after the fronts installed. I will take measurements again Saturdayish for a week of settling. Yes, I measured only one side of the car, fully laden as the manual says (RTFM please), and from the floor to the fender (stupid idea because not everyone's tires are the same dia or pressure) instead of to the center of the wheel so everyone would have the same measurements. Your results may vary.

As far as measuring from the ground to the fender, still decent as long as you keep diameters in mind, most are pretty close to oem so maybe a 1/4" here & there, but a good point you've made
