Thanks, that is the lowest front can go rear can go lower with link adjustment, I left room for travel since I'm running 295/25/20 in back don't want any issues, in addition to that I'm in NY and that's a problem alone lol

Thanks, no camber adjustment at all. I like the wheels also but sometimes think the car needs a black wheel

how's the car ride lowered with links?

much worse than stock?

i'm trying to determine if it's really necessary to go with a lowering module or if links are good enough for a wagon

here in NY where i'm located the roads are not in the greatest shape, so with springs & links & in comfort mode its doable, not sure where your located but if the roads are good you wont notice it much except for the lower look and bit stiffer ride, for me if i hit a pothole you will definitely feel it
