OK...lots of questions. Can you comment on the exact drop front and rear? And tell us whether the number you report is immediately after drop or after settling. Also, can you comment on the ride difference, the camber issue, and the going price of the springs?
Friend went with B&G and is very happy with them, but the drop was an even 1" on all fours. I'm looking to improve the look while hopefully not hurting performance or my pocketbook too badly. Looking for about a 3/4" drop on all fours. Any suggestions?

Sorry people I havent been here for a while, enjoying a new toy now as well..... Harley Fatboy.
Ok here I go, cost of wheels w/ tires were about 3k. The drop was about 1.5 inches all around but the back of the car still looked lower than the front so I modified the front spring to bring the front down another 3/4 inches. Ride is great, better than stock, camber was really off but I waited about 2 months to have that corrected. Almost 3 degrees off in the rear and about 2.5 in the front. I bought the camber adjustment rods for the rear and had a local shop do the alignment (Miami Chasis). Springs were about 150$ from HopUpracing.com. The settled in about 2 weeks.
