Default Gr-2's and GC's? what do you think?

Ok, so i have a set of each, (gr2's and GC's). How low should i go on the Gr-2's seeing that they are factory or OEM replacements. I had no other choice but to get these...(long story)


So please let me know before i go ride out.

Ps. There already installed, i just need to know how low in the front and rear...thanks.

Do you plan on keeping this set-up/car for a while?

hope the springs are under 300lb/in and you don't go under a 2 finger gap. as long as that happens they shocks will live awhile.

3-6 months? Then I'd say it doesn't really matter what height. Might as well roll the dice.
