Now I just need to get down and check it out if I can find time. In the winter I'm running my stock D90's with stock size tires. At the center line of the tires the top of the wheel well lip is at 25.25. My car has allways sit higher than other 944's and I just installed Paragon's adjustable ride height kit with Koni yellows and I don't want to go to low and bottom out or mess up the ball joint.

It looks like I have a 1/2" drop from those numbers. It looks lower since the springs from the kit were 12" and it raiswd my car 1/2" so now that I have 10" 200lbs in the front and the rear was lowered it looks good. I also found a ripped caster block from running my 17's last summer. The car feels very solid now with less nose dive and corners flater. Well worth the trouble and sould have done this years ago.

I have the same kit in the front of mine, 12" 200# only lowered 12mm at lowest setting, will be trading for 10"

I installed the 10" 200# a year ago. With the Koni's, the new springs, the lower ride height, the 968 sway bars and 968 caster block the handling is excellent and the ride quality improved. Without the stiffer springs, I always thought the car was over dampened and under sprung. Plus it looks sooooo much better with just the small amount lower ride height.

I have stock S2 sway bars. I like to make 1 change at a time that way if it's not correct you know what to look at. I'm looking at 968 M030 Sway bars next but the wear sensor for the brakes went off once so the sway bars will wait.

I do a fair amount of my own maintenance and end up checking brake pads and rotors quite often. I pulled the brake wear sensors out and zip tied them out of the way.
