im gonna go out on a limb and say he probably didnt release the ebrake after lowering the jack which makes the rear sit higher until you release the tension for some reason

I'll lower it 1" in the spring when I get 19s but thats it. I want my car to be functional. I don't want to have to drive a certain way, take certain routes just because I'm lowered. Roads can get pretty ****ty around here too plus I plan on having some fun in the winter in the snow.

If I had the coupe, I'd throw practicality out the window and get coils but that's not the case with the sedan.

Edit: Plus the spare is pretty damn flat (thanks to a puncture) so it makes the gap look even worse.

1" makes a big difference in looks though.

I would like to have mine lower, but it's also not practical for me right now... but there's no way I could go back to stock ride height.

I'm going with coupe fronts and sedan sport rears (if i can find them.) Stole this idea from another member on here with an X and it dropped him about an even 1" around.

I'll probably need the 2x4s and 2x8s though since using my jack at the front is a bit tight and it's already a low pro one.

I don't want an uneven drop. Even if it's slightly, it will bother the **** out of me.
