Finally got around to getting some pix...the sun wasn't quite all the way out, but this is as good as they get for the time being lol.

The first one is of my car on stock springs...all the rest are the megan racing springs Still loving them!

I am running Bilstein PSS9 coilovers and yes they are installed for about 2 months. Have done an autox on them and paxed in 1st place. So they work very well. You just have to adjust the rears 15mm higher to offset the different struts.
This is about the only pic I have.

They will go lower, but I think you will start messing with the suspension geometry. I am on 17s and the tires are 1" shorter than stock whhich adds 1/2" wheel gap. The car is pretty low as it sits.
