[QUOTE="XP900, post: 16581360, member: 199546"] Catmonkey: Let me know what you think about this... I am thinking I need 11 inch coils based on what you wrote. I suspect these are linear coils I would be getting. I read that the stock 2010 is 30 inches from ground to the rear upper lip - can't measure mine right now. Your car was at 28.5 Need to subtract .4 (half the tire difference between yours and mine 27.7 - 26.9 = .8) Need to decrease another .58 for the drop using 185 lb springs which I will be using Therefore my rear lip height with your 185 coils and adjusters would be about 28.5 - .4 -.58 = 27.52 inches with adjusters at their lowest level. Even at their full height it would only get to about 27.52 + 1.5 = 29.02 ( .98 inches lower than my current setting) With an 11 inch coil my range would be 28.52 to 30.02 which would be perfect for my .75 drop. I'm sure these readings may be off a little but with 11" coils I may have more room to adjust. With only a .75 drop in the rear are lower control arm relocation brackets even needed? [/QUOTE]
