    Wait, I don't recall using the word slam. You first responded to my post, so I replied back. The last time I checked, this was a public forum. I was giving my opinion like every body else, including YOU.

    Btw, I know exactly what the op is doing as I have the same GC setup on my m3. My apologies to the op for replying to this sensitive tool. Let me know if you want to share feed backs on our suspensions.

      Thanks! And yah, the license plate still had all the registration stickers stacked up since 1987 on it, haha.

      I rolled both, and slightly pulled the rears.

                          I plan on doing a very similar suspension setup. How much lower can you go in the rear with those tires?

                            Well I don't rub at all right now after a roll and slight pull on the fenders (even when driving hard), unless I'm pulling into an uneven driveway or somethin. so I could prob. go a little lower. But the rear adjusters are as low as they can go now.

                                They feel good. Not problem at all for a DD. I like feeling the road, but it's not harsh at all. I could probably have even gotten 75D subframe bushings. And I haven't noticed any extra noise.
