.. The low drain grate makes the car look really high.

Haha.. i'm not worried about how low it can be.. it just looks really weird parked over the grate, to me, at least

anyone that understands how the ground slopes in a parking lot so that water goes into a drain will understand its partly an optical illusion

Was the only decent place to park for pics, the car had just been washed for once

Ride is good (not 'great', but MUCH better than stock); the ride height is finally pretty much straightened out. I can get the front to rub at highway speeds on big dips, though. I've worn holes in the tops of the wheel well liners ;(

I am reading on other forums of people having to replace their tires at < 15K with STOCK suspension due to the factory camber and the car eating the insides of the tires. I'm at 17K and very close to needing replacement (had the suspension for about 4 months now) of tires. The insides are completely gone.. so i'm sure the negative camber from the lowering isnt helping at all, but since the issue is already there.. I can't gage the difference
