I have to say this was the easiest spring swap I've ever done and I've done a lot. Standard strut removal on the front that consisted of 8 bolts or nuts. Two bolts on the rear. Easy. The sizes you need are a combination sae and metric. Rear 17 mm, 15/16. Front 17mm, 13/16 and 15/16.

It lowered the front exactly 1 inch and the back 1.5. If it was up to me I would have gone .25 lower in the rear but it still looks so much better.

Here are some pics for your viewing pleasure

Good to know, did you have to unbolt the rear control arm or a trailing arm or a tie rod, lol I can't remember what's in there, it's been a while since I looked, to drop the rear spring out? Or did you just at use the spring tool for the rear to get them collapsed enough to get them out?

I just unbolted one side of the control arm and the sway bar then pushed down the control arm. Like I said... Easy

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!
