They will settle a tad over the first few weeks after they have been installed too.
Kills me every time I mess with my GCs since I set it where I want and then it drops some more and I have to reset it.

At first glance you can not even tell she is lowered. Hoodzy, did you measure the wheel gap before and after the lowering?

Yeah that still looks like it isnt dropped. My cars tires are tucked under the fender with my setup and I got stock rims and tires.

killa dont the zx2 struts give u another half inch drop??
i never measured them b4 but its pretty close to the drop they advertise 1.5 and 1.2
the pics dont really do it justice but in person the front gap was disgusting now its perfect in my eyes anyways.. another .2 inches maybe but i dont want my wheels up in the fender

well if thats a myth then that would mean there has to be 2 different kind of mx-3 eibach springs would it not?

y do u say that there are 2 eibach springs for the mx3?
unless the lower spring seat is 1/2 lower the car will not be 1/2 lower with s/r struts.
i dont think it is actually a myth. more like a misunderstanding. i believe it is that the strut shaft is 1/2" shorter which gives more suspension travel on a lowered car before bottoming out the shaft as opposed to using kyb gr2 or tokico hp.
