Just installed Bilsteins and Eibachs today. Front is pretty low IMO and the rear still has to settle.
Is this normal height for this set up?

Ill start it off.
25 3/8" rear - 25 5/8" front.

And I thought I need like an inch more drop.
Mine is at:
25 3/8 front
25 7/8 rear
No rubbing except over really deep dips, I rub in the rear

Nice, We are almost identical on the drop. Same here on the rubbing. Only on really large dips.
