I have had a set of new sweeps sitting around for about a week that I just put on. well that just slammed my car. Never checked the ride hight before but I was 6mm with the TC wheels and tires, like 4mm with the D60 and 2mm or so with the sweeps, and the rear is even lower.

well I am guessing thats no good. Have not opened up the shocks yet but I am guessing there are internal spacers because the a arms are tucked up way past nutral.

so where is a good starting point for ride hight...4-5mm? So its normal to have to open the shocks to change hight if you change tire size? Not that its a hard thing to do.
