Oh yeah, I plan on shaving the rear upper springs mounts to lower another 1/2".
It's a bunch of crap when they say to add 1/2" to the advertised drop of the Z springs to get the final lowering measurement...It's more like .4 front and .3 rear.

So how much spacing do you have now? Do you think you can post a picture? It would be very helpful And what size tires and rims are you running? Im thinking about 20x8.5 and 20x10.5/ 245/35/20 and 275/30/20

Here you go...a little less gap than shown in the pictures. Fronts are 8.5 and rears are 10.

Verrry Nice!! thats just about a perfect gap. And you say they are w/in specs? How can you go wrong. And is the ride bouncy, or a little more hard and agressive than oem?

Do you have to be careful in most driveways ? W/my H&Rs, every freakin speed bump or driveway i have to angle it and go slow I see you also have a lip, does it rub?

So im assuming your ride now feels like a stock 6MT (Stock Sport Tuned Suspension with Stock 19's) ?

Hey, thanks. Zhtechs and 20s make a pretty good combo while being able to align within spec. The ride is not bouncy at all, just a little firmer than stock. My wife and kids don't complain Most of all, the springs handle pretty well.
