[QUOTE="black 10th vert, post: 10040028, member: 65729"] ^ I agree. Sometimes if there is a dip in the pavement, the tire can bulge more, and alter the measurement. I ran into this myself when checking mine. If that is not the case, then it means that the pigtails on the springs are not seated in the same exact position, from one side, to the other. It is a pain to get them exact - especially when you fight with the rubber isos. In my case, I used some 3/4" heater type hose, and made my own isos, which were thinner than the stock, but still offer insulation from noise, and rubbing. I had the opposite problem when I first installed my race springs. I also have the Steeda X-2 balljoints, which alter the geometry, and lower it even more. They provide aluminum 1/4" spacer discs to put on top of the coils, but I didn't put them on at first, because I wanted a good drop. Well, without those, and without the bottom isos, the car was slammed! I have a vert, which has the extra brace under the K-member, and that would scrape on any slight crown, even in my own driveway!:eek: I ended up adding the aluminum plates, plus, the home made lower isos, and it is perfect now. I am also running the upper isos too, btw. [/QUOTE]
