I need a favour :)

Can the guys/girls with lowering springs measure the distance between the ground and the side sills

i'm looking for the following springs

eibach pro-kit but i don't think that it will lower enough

and H&R race i think it might lower too much.

can someone please do this for me. Thanks in advance

I have ground controls. I have it about 7" from the ground to the bottom of the sideskirt. Kind of high but I need it to clear my driveway. You might want to think bout going this route also that way you can adjust the height to your liking.

Are your fronts and rears even? I notice my front was slightly higher (about 3/4 finger) than my rear.

ive got h&r race installed on my car. in the front (1.9) it tucks perfectly. the rear (1.6) has got about 1-2 inch gap. just to give you a heads up i would highly recommend a camber correction kit with these springs. hope this helps!

I'd say H & R sports 1.5 drop than get koni yellows set it at the lowest perch bing thats another inch almost nearly no finger gap, you dont wanna snow plow the driveways or streets.
