BC Racing Coilovers Question

So this question is for those that have these coilovers. When installed how low was the car without touching any settings on the coils? for instance was it still at stock height or could you only stick a finger between the tire and the fender? Also how far did you adjust it to get rid of the wheel gap? Thank you and please no comments on why BC when these such and such are better.

Stock height on the BC is about .5" below the normal standard height of the EVO.

Thanks for the reply. I installed them today. Wasn't too difficult just time consuming. I ended up raising them to 4.5" on the front and 6.75" in the rear before I installed. This gave me a three finger gap in the front and a two finger gap in the rear. Either tomorrow or Friday I'm going to lower the front about .25" to .5" so I can get a two fingerish gap in the front and I'll be happy.

Update for anyone who cares but I adjusted the fronts down to 3.5" and that is now giving me a 2 finger gap. I'm sure it will be lower once it settles more but I think I found the sweet spot for me

hi sorry for the late reply but out of the box they are pretty stiff. you can adjust the dampening on it though. i adjusted the fronts to be 15 clicks and the rears are still at 8 clicks. they come out of the box at 8 clicks which is pretty hard.

Out of the box it is set at 30 out of 32. I set mine somewhere in the middle like 15.
