Default No numbers, but I think Stasis gets the nod for "lift kit".

Bear in mind...you will see a difference in ride quality/performance as you adjust height through the range. Setting the height is more than adjusting to visual tastes, but most often, this aspect is ignored.

Default Actually, no I don't.

You already bought your co's...so I'm not sure where this information fits into the grand scheme.

Default I want to see what the avg. drop range is and where the avg. midpoint is located

Then I'll play around with some math - bored I guess.

Default FK Konigsports. You can go so low your tires won't turn!

If you can, just give them to the Moss Man and I'll pick them up from him. Thanks!

Default Then ask that question...

average drop is 25-25.5" from fender to ground.

Why is that the average drop? Because if you go lower (and most kits will allow that), you run into issues with odd tire wear, and fender rubbing.
