I know we've seen a lot of these posts, but I figured I would share as well.

I'm really happy with the results thus-far (all 2 hours I've spent with it). The car still needs to settle a bit over the next week and will eventually wind up lower than shown in the pics below. It is currently set as high as possible.

You can immediately feel a difference in the car (especially coming from a car with a failed DRC). Aside from the ride/handling improvement I was surprised by the change in steering feel. The steering is heavier and the entire car feels more solid.

I can't wait untill the spring when I can really give this a workout with some summer tires instead of snows.

I want to thank Ryan @ ICS for the suspension and the installation (and putting up with my bi-weekly emails pestering him). The guys at ICS did a great job and seem to be very meticulous and thoughtful.

Thanks, also, to JeffAhn for the pics below and for keeping me company during the hours of the install.

looks great.

Can you tell me what the ride height is? Is that basically the height they come set to by default? Also is there any rake to the car now, ie. is the front lower or at least even with the rear height? It's difficult to tell from your pics...

Thanks!

I haven't bothered to take an measurements since the car will settle over the next week and the measurements will change.

I will take more pics / final measurements next weekend when it should be at its final height.

I don't think you will be disappointed.<ul><li><a href="https://forums.audiworld.com/rs4b7/msgs/106901.phtml">https://forums.audiworld.com/rs4b7/msgs/106901.phtml</a</li></ul>

and they are fantastic. I had mine set to 26 all around.... friday I'll see how much they settled and then readjust back to 26" of not 26 1/4". No rubbing at all BTW..... just smooth cruising.

obviously a step down from the PT 'Bruiser' we were riding around in during the install lol

I'd say that's a satisfied vendor-customer!
