Yeah its a 2" drop and the rides not bad at all.. I was expecting worst i thought it was going to be bouncing everywhere but it feels pretty much stock. 20" rims feels just like the stock RFT but you don't feel the ride as much. Overall I'm really happy with the 2" drop and 20" rims. I was just like you guys reading these forums about how bad the ride is and how it rubs don't buy into it if you have the right set up its perfect. I haven't rubbed yet I was going about 80-90 on the freeway and when i hit some bumps it was fine no rubbing at all. I dont scape on driveways and I never bottom out.
Only thing is if you plan on a 2" drop make sure you get the right offset for the rear wheels or else it'll rub.. So plan out what you want to do with your car first. . and thanks for everyones kind comments
