Thanks man. I think it's pretty much settled in. I measured at install and today and it's just a tad lower.

Stock was non sport ...and very cushy, which was fine b/c I have a 530 and not a 545, 550, or M.
This handles much better now...more responsive, and overall tighter ride.

Is it just as cushy on straight roads or do you feel more bumps?
