when i saw the title i was like..."how is he gonna have a new pic of my car?" but then i realized that you meant YOUR em1. looks good....can't really tell with the lighting, it's a little too dark. im on skunk2 coils also and im at a 4inch front and about a 3 inch rear.

maybe you just have to drive it around a bit and let it settle in...lower the rear if you like the even drop all around

well i didnt measure either, i just put my front springs to the bottom of the coil and i know that they are 4 inch adjustable....and the back is about one fourth left...so i figure it's about 3 inches down.

i think it makes it look more aggressive....ask seanjohn, his is like mine too. i like it higher in the back but some people think it's gay, or looks wierd.

Drop it more. Its like in between the high and low points.

I say rotate the perch 4 more times front and back. It would still maintain the back being a little higher if done this way..

I agree. I prefer either even front and back (use measuring tape) or raise the rear a tad higher to look a little more sporty.

That's how my current suspension is set-up.

Overall, it's not slammed IMO. It needs to go lower front and back. The less wheel gap, the better.

Assumming that every perch is at the same height, rotate 4 complete turns each.

Count remaining threads on cup if you miss-count.

I like how it looks but IMO should go lower....heres what mine looks like and its on Suspension Techniques springs 2.3 F 2.1 R

the rear tire is up a little due to the really uneven ground...kinda lifted a little ...it sits lower than that..
