New coilover ride height.
What do you guys think about this ride height? It's pretty much stock ride height. It's a drag oriented suspension and wheel set up. Should i drop it another half inch? Crap 1st pic is rotated wrong. Sorry.

Looks almost stock to me. I think it should be a tad lower, like 1 inch??

Going for looks or function? JusticePete suggested not going lower than 26" in the rear (measured from bottom of wheel lip/rim to fender) for the sake of the axles/joints. I lowered mine such that the top of the tire was nearly flush with the bottom of the fender (about 25 5/8"), but I'm going to raise it in the near future to 26" for practical reasons.

I want it to look better but can still hook. It just looks like a 4x4 to me. I'm going to measure it like you mentioned and see where it sits.

What tires are you running up front & wheel width. The rear looks good but the fronts look a little skinny stretched on a wide wheel in the 1st pic.

28×4.5×18 M&H on a 18x5 rim. The recommended rim width was 4 1/2 but I don't think the front rims come in a 4.5 width?

That is a common setup. I think it looks good, maybe a tad lower as already posted.
