Ya, I am definitely on the fence about lowering. Don't want to have a problem with driveway and every speed bump or uneven road condition...

I'm lowered on the Phastek springs and really haven't had any issues.
Speed bumps haven't been a problem. Driveways are usually a non-issue too. I do angle them though.

That is comforting. I have been planning on the BMR 1" kit. I do angle my drive way anyway as it is quite sharp and bumpy.

I would love to lower mine. The lowered stance looks so much better but there is no way I can get into my garage if I lower.

Hopefully someone can post some pics of this drop with the ground kit...it looks like it might be a little too tight for comfort.

Here are some shots I got the other day in a parking garage. Sorry for the cell phone quality but I will go back later to get some good shots.

We have the ACS kit all around.

Are those the new springs?
Have you measured if there's a difference in the amount of drop?

My car seems to be a bit lower with the v1 springs.

Yes, we measured and they are exactly the same as before with the first version. Our tire combo might be different, which would cause it to look different.

Our tire size is below...
Front - 275/35
Rear - 305/35

Cool.
It could also be the angle of the pic. Mine doesn't match yours but it's all I had available.

I'm running 285/30-20 & 305/30-20

What offset are you running on the rear wheels?

Will these Springs work with the 2.0 turbo?
