I am not sure what height to go with. I don't want it to be super low...
I am in oklahoma, so some of the roads aren't the best. Do you lower more in the front than the back...confused on this.
Thanks

I would set the tein basics about two fingers or .75 inches from the top of your tires.
when you install, set the height of one side then set again on the other by either counting the threads or just measuring.
you would be safe with between .75 to 1 inch wheel gap.

The streets in Boston aren't too great either but I lowered mine .75 all around. After they settled for a few weeks. They seem to have been lowered ~1 inch..Ride is not bad at all ..of course it's harsh but I think it rides better than factory 
The dealership actually did the alignment for me and in the end it was just a little off factory specs in the front.. I can just about squeeze one finger in the back.. the front however is tight for one finger.. I notice no rubbing or thumping.
I was told the Z is supposed to have the front a little lower than the back.. It aids in weight distribution during acceleration or something like that

I was thinking those numbers .75-1.0.
does anyone have the front set lower than the back? if so by how much??
OH YEAH! BTW, Thanks again for the CO and Hawk brake pads Jeff. I got them today. I will pick them up from UPS tomorrow though, (I was out of the house when they tried to deliver)
dealing with you was easy, fast, and simple! PROPS!

I'm almost tucking my 19" GL with the tein flex. I wouldn't recommend it though as I am in the market for a new y pipe. the braids around the flex pipe of the y pipe is shredded, but no exuast leak.
