If I get ambitious I may remove the shims to get more drop and see if that gets me close to the 1" drop I was looking for.

I like the look of USAZR1's car but wonder if that's not a little too low, at least for the washboards they call streets where I live.
Our car looks really low but because the front & rear tires are about 1" taller,the front air dam is still intact. It's only scraped once,so far,and that was on a pretty gnarly driveway. The VB&P front spring is a lot stiffer than the stock unit but is very easy to adjust. Might need to adjust ride height again after I get back from Houston,Monday.
