Illumuna + Red spring question

The Illumuna strut and red spring combo for the 4th gen, how much does it lower F/R? I've been searching like crazy, google and the org. Anyone have any insight?



If It helps, my car in sig is sitting on it.

It's at most a 1.5"F/1.3"R drop. Very similar to Maxspeed's, comfy as well.

That's what it is looking like by comparing to others with similar drops on 18's with other springs in the "show us your drop" thread. thanks

1&2: Suspension will sag over time, I'm sure you will try to argue with me on this point.

3: I didn't ask, " DURRRRRRRRRR HOW DO I LOWER MY CAR". This was a legitimate question to ask in a forum where this fact could be known by a member already saving me the time and hassle of measuring a stock 4th gen and mine. Plus, this is not something that is asked 100000000x times.

4: If you are going to scrutinize me for not being an advanced suspension question, don't use "ish".

this.

Ebay got the combo for like 650. I think the lowest you might be able to find the combo is 600 ish. I havent heard anything bad about the setup.

I got blues but was thinking bout swapping the fronts with some illuminas, put the settings on 2 and ride super comfy.

Dont get me wrong the blues ride good, but some bumps hit a lil tiny bit harder than they should and i think illuminas on 2 would be ideal.

My Illuminas on 2 felt just as comfy, if not comfier than stock.
