You should, preferably, drop the rear the same as the front to keep things level like the oem set up.

Whats your impressions on the ride quality?Is it harder?What wheels do you have?

I have been contemplating lowering mine with the 1.2" Eibach kit but afraid that I would loose comfort since I am driving on 20"s.

dealership wouldnt put the springs on so i had to take it to a shop today for the springs and there going to do the DIS drop tommorrow. The ride is good i can feel more of the road you would say. Definitly more sporty of a feel and i have #87 20" wheels on the ride. Im just nor sure if i should have the rear dropped the same 1.2or just an 1" i have heard people doing both just ttrying to get impressions.
