Before, recently got 17" (ET45) instead of the 16" (ET54) from factory

After, the rear didn´t drop as much as the front end. It may still drop a bit.

For those who made the change , did the distance change after a few days or kept the same.

Your thoughts are welcome

Does not look to have dropped very much - is that just off the ramp? might settle properly after a drive.

Did you measure before and after?

 I did measure the before and after. 2.5cm front and 1.2cm rear.

Today measured again and have 3cm at front and 2cm at rear.

Now seems more like it.

Although not that lower as some may expected, I do think the final result suits the model and for some reason the ride confort got better compared to the original springs. Cornering got way better, just turn the wheel and it goes with less bodyroll (just putting 17" with ET45 the bodyroll reduced drastically)

Merry Christmas everyone
