First off where do you live upstate? Second and this is to both of you guys when you got new struts and a drop how much did the gap between the rim and the strut change. I ask this because I need a dro but I have about 2mm of space between the rim and the strut.

yeah if all else failed for an even drop i would have went back to stock spring in the back, but it's looking good so far.

I've had the lip since july.
