I took some pics of the car with the new rims and drop. Right now it's about 12.5 on each corner, and I think I finally have my preload set properly. Once I put in the FM frame rails the suspension works alot better now, chassis has really stiffened up. The MS strut brace helps as well.

It still looks a little high here but I think it has settled a bit in the last week, since I have been beating the out of it on the Toronto roads. Mild fender rub, and lots of lip scrapping. Still looks kinda high though, not sure I would go much lower.
