The rear side, i set 5mm shorter than stock. I recommend dont set more than 5mm different from oem.
Wait..... so you lengthen the fronts to lower it....
..... and shorten the rears to lower it??

That makes no sense.... but admittedly, I haven't "seen" it in person. I'm quite mechanically inclined, I just also happen to be neurotic about researching things before I do them.

Are there vehicle-specific directions that come with the ABM kit? Is there a reference comparison of how many mm adustment equals vehicle height change?

I do want to go "a little" lower... maybe just 1.25 inches though... not super low.

I know "eventually" I can get it where I want it, I'd just prefer to have a "basic plan" in place, before I end up removing and replacing the wheels 15 times.... know what I mean?
