my eibachs settled like an inch all the way around after some time. it didn't hurt that i left the old strut assemblies with the 91 knuckles and brakes with calipers attached to the fronts in the trunk for about a month.

the car rides nice, and isn't too low. it looks real nice.

1/4 to 1/2 an inch should be what you are looking at. My moogs did about a 1/4. The other day I had three of my friends and two fat chicks in my ride and I had no rubbing or bumpstop issues driving in pothole city D.C.

i'm stuck in NYC right now, as soon as I get home i'll dig around for pics. Jessemachone can verify this as he helped me install them. the car is A LOT lower than before. and the inch estimate very well may be too much. i just know the car sits a lot lower than it did before.
