At what points on the car do you guys measure to make sure its lowered right? If im not mistaken the rear wheel arch is smaller than the front so this plays tricks with my eyes. I have mine at about 25" all around when measuring down the center of the wheel to the fender or quarter panel. Is the front or rear supposed to be lower or higher than the other? thanks in advance.

I don't know about the exact measurements, but if you've got coilovers and can adjust the height I'd judge by the fendergap. I'd keep it pretty close to even; maybe just a hair lower in the front. I don't think you want rear sitting alot lower than the front, doesn't look right to me unless it's sitting on the ground.

It doesn't matter where you measure as long as you have a reference point before and after the drop. Doesn't matter where really..
And as for the front vs rear, it depends on what springs you have. Our cars have more gaps in the front stock. If you get springs that lower the same all around, you'll still have the same front larger gap.
