BMR Spring Options

Ok guys, without knowing the drop amounts on these springs let us know what you think of this ride height (visually). After some response I'll give you more information but everybody seems to be getting hung up on drop amounts and bumpstop trimming instead of what looks good, functions great, and installs without alignment concerns.

A lot of you will be surprised when I tell you the details....let us know what you think!

I love it when a musclecar sits on it's haunches a little bit... Gives it that drag look

That's a very nice ride height. Looks perfect. Have you had many issues with it as a daily driver?

That is a great look but it doesn't look daily driver friendly. Also, will it drag going onto a lift? That front end looks EXTREMELY low.

Looks to be a 1.25" drop which may be a bit much for a daily driver on many roads. 3/4" to 1" drop all around is probably the max to be safe for a daily driver.

That's a great looking stance. Looks perfect.

I'm going to guess 3/4" drop in the rear, and 1" drop in the front.
