Just got my new rimmers(pics to come) and the look great but now the front sits like a Grand Cherokee.I believe I have 245 35-18s up front.I would like to drop it about 2 inches to look normal is Eibach the only option we have?What is everyone doing to correct this?

Has it had time to settle back? Shouldn't be any different than before as diam is similar.

You do realize that the minute its lifted, it won't resettle for 50 miles or so and can't be aligned until it settles.

Alternative is using a winch bar to reset it by pulling down, literally, to a floor-mounted eyebolt

No all I did was push down on the fender a few times.Once the whether breaks I'll take it around the block see what happens.

You really should search a bit on this. Around the block isn't enough, unless your block is the Ring.
