thanks all, honestly I don't know how low I went lol. Whatever height came from Tein, I lower another 1/2" on the front and I left the back alone. I'm sure I can measure the current fender's height and compare it to stock. I would have to do a search to find the stock height, if anyone knows please save me the hassle of search and let me know, thanks.

I honestly think the CS do ride smoother than stock when I had it at the softest setting. I have not noticed any bouncing at all. I dont' like to take hard corners so I cant' tell you how it handles. If you want the smoothness feeling this set is definately for you.

HaHa...Looks like you have your front lip installed too. I am still waiting for mine. And I keep 2 fingers in front and 1.5 fingers in rear. Yours are much lower than mine

thank you everyone, yup I installed the front lip last MOnday, the same day it came in. I also installed the CS the same day it came in too, on Thursday. Look like I don't have patience when it comes to installing mods.

eddiec: the drop I have right now is perfect, it rubs a bit in the front when I hit bumps and stuff. I think it'll drop a bit more once the springs settle in.

Please let me know your settings. I am very interested about yours.
Now I still have 2 fingers in front and 1.5 fingers in rear. I don't know if I should keep 1 finger in both front and rear. Kind of worry about the rubbing after full-load.

When I get mine adjusted I am going to set the fender 1/4 inch above the edge of the tire. Make it look flush and smooth.
