Any chance I get to post pics of my car and I take it. MP HAS kit set to default port settings of ~10mm. No spacers yet but planning to do 15mm all the way around. Maybe 18mm in the rear.....

I height of the port installed HAS kit seems to be good. Not too high and not too low.

Questions - What are you lowered on? What's the measurement from the ground to your lightweight lip? (I have a tricky parking garage to get into) What sideskirts and rear diffuser?

I reduced the height further in order to try and resolve it and it didnt help other than to make the comfort mode firmer. Sport chassis helps but still far from what I expect and a down grade from stock.

I’m not a suspension expert but imo either they are not matched well to the shocks or the oem dampers don’t like bieng lowered beyond a certain point. I’m leaning towards the later given the oem ride height.

In conclusion as it always has been if your gonna lower it and still drive it hard just get some KW V3 or Ohlins R/T etc, the springs are a compromise. Just one idiots opinion.
I do agree with you, Kw Has kit ride worse then stock, its more for the look and to be honest, this car doesn’t look right lower it to 1 finger gap. I have mine sitting on 2 fingers gap rn, this will give me a better ride but look just like stock with the front lowered to match the rear. I should’ve went with full coilover right from the beginning.

That was fast! Thank you. Wow, looks lower than 4-3/4, it might just work for me as I should be able to get my MP-HAS to 5". Wheels are fantastic. I saw your post in the VT forged and see the rear sides rather than a different diffuser. Regardless they are clean. Well executed.

Broke the bank on these bad boys. I’ve always had a obsession with LM’s, now I got em.

Currently sitting on H&R VTF. Going 20’s all around with the LM’s.

Install next week.

Upgraded to VT Forged SLAs. Still at port installed HAS height. Thinking about bringing it down another 10mm. Will also eventually swap to 285/35 in the front, still up in the air if 295/35 or 305/30 in the rear.

You happen to be in Charleston and just get your car lowered at European Road & Racing?

I am on M Performance HAS, all the way down. No issues other than having to modify the vents on the fron inner fender liners (I am on 20x9.5 rims with PS4S 275/30/20s up front). Will try and post picture on Monday.
