I installed the front Tokico HPs and Tien S Techs today. I was wondering if this is how the drop should look like, heres a before and after.lighter was used to show amount of clearance, it didnt fit in the same place after the drop.also when i put the spring onto the strut and took off the spring compressors, the spring wasnt really that tightly in. is this because it is shorter for the drop?

Give it about 2 weeks and take the picture again. Let the springs settle out and you'll notice a difference.

Hmmm... i personally like lower, but I think the s-techs are supposed to be pretty modest, correct?
