When you first see the car after L-Tuned installation, you'll SWEAR there is more than 1.25" drop!! Even the techs thought so but we had measured before and after................

I have the stock 17" chrome rims w/ L-tuned springs/shocks, here's a side shot to show the small drop (sorry, not a very good shot, but couldn't find a better image).

From what i can see from pics of l-tuned springs, seems to give the rear drop lower than the front look, which I personally dont like.

Well according to L-tuned literature, the rear drop is .9 inch and the front drop is 1.2 inch. I think when stock there was a massive gap to start with. It didn't occur to me at the time to do actual measurements before and after.
