                Wow that surprises me. Are you 100% sure you have them all the way down? cause if you do that means you should have at least a little tire tuck depending on wheel and tire size. Please tell me you have before and after pics

                    What measurements did you place when you ordered them? I called GC several times and they told me they do not have a kit for these coils because they don't have the measurements. Really interested in getting a set - I can't run my wheels without them!

                      I ordered them for stock strut and spring size, i havent tracked these yet but just driving around seems like there is no issues.

                        This is with front and rear Eibach springs installed, wheels are 17"


                        This is with the front JOM coils installed, still have about 1" to go lower, rears still have the same Eibach springs, wheels are 16"


                        This is with the 17"s on again, didn't move the front adjustment but with the rears all the way down and it is almost 3/4" higher than the Eibach springs not to mention that there are 3 coils on each spring touching eachother.


                        To say I'm frustrated/ irritated/ pissed/ let down is an understatement......

                          You want the rear to be lower than that? Anyway take out the adjusters and spring pads. That will drop it down lower.

                            Just got my jom's today. Will post up pics on Friday when I install them and roll my fenders since I'm running 15x8 +-0

                              Then what's the point of having it be adjustable? I want this thing undrivably low, for undisclosed reasons of course. If I know this was gonna be the case I would have yarded it all out and sat it on the bump stops to begin with.

                                Just got mine in as well. This was actually DHL's 2nd attempt to deliver it as I was not home Friday and I was worried that having DHL hold it through the weekend, I would get a box with several holes in it from handling. To my surprise it was the complete opposite. The box is in excellent shape and was taped very well. Nothing is poking through.

                                Now need to wait for the weather to be a bit warmer to install these and a whole weekend to devote to it. Guess I'll send my wheels out for refinishing and order some tires while I wait.
