Thanks. I'm happy with it. I'm on 19's and it's probably less than 1 finger in the front and 1-1.5 finger in the back.

When I had 20's, I was tucking in the front and no gap in the back. The fronts would rub on the fender liner when going over expansion joints on the freeway.

Sorry typo, i meant "dead coil"

There are two coils that are basically touching eachother or close by. at the bottom. By cutting one off, you can gain anywhere between 1/4-1/2 more drop than what you would regularly get at minimized comfort decrease

I also have 19 inch so it should look more or less like this one. Thanks.
Should I order them right from their website, or is there another place I should go.
