I'm not quite sure how much I got out of lowering, but the front measures 26 7/8 to the center of the wheel well and the rear measures 27 7/8. I had to drive the car a couple of times before the settling stopped.
How much DROP did you get from factory-lowering your Z?
Hey all,
Lowered my Z via the factory hardware this weekend. Looks like I got 1/2" out of the front, and only 1/8" or so out of the rear...
I was under the impression that the rear would drop more than it did (and the front wouldn't move much). I'm liking the way the front looks, but I think the rear could stand another 1/2" drop.
I left two full threads in the rear. Should I go any more in the rear?
Also, how long did you all have to drive/let the car sit before the car "settled" into its new lowered height? I'm wondering if the rear will go any lower after more driving...
Thanks!

I left two threads sticking out of the nut.
Wow! Just measured my distances at lunchtime:
REAR: 28-5/8"
FRONT: 27"
Now, we're talking about measureing from the ground to the start/bottom of the highest point of the fender, yes?
...And I'm a full inch higher than you after doing the same adjustments?
WHAT GIVES?!
