Ask all you want. Can't tell any difference in ride from stock.
No rubbing no bottoming out. Have never scraped the CDC chin.

Front: 255/45ZR18 18x9" rims
Rear: 285/40ZR 18 18x10.5" rims

I have Roush Rears only and I think it looks perfect. I am not a fan of "slammed" cars though. They look great but having owned one I hated driving it. I couldnt make it over a speedbump.

Get the matching Roush shocks as well.
The Roush rear springs only claim a 3/4" drop.
Thats what I saw. It was 3/4" drop at the axle.
A little more drop out by the bumper.

Be sure to orientate the springs so as to be able
to read the ROUSH thats printed on the springs
rightside up.

Thanks for the info 157db, so what's the cost on only the rear roush lowering springs and whats needed?

3/4" is wrong. The roush website says 1.25" and I measured an actual 1.25" drop from the top of the tire to the fender on my car. Look at the photo.

I just installed Steeda competition springs, d-specs, and the Steeda HD mounts on my car this morning. I did the rear first, lowered it down and thought it looked ok even before lowering the front! The rear Steeda's lower 1.4'' (front 1''). The stock springs jack the rear up WAY too high IMO. The Roush springs should match f/r perfectly. I'd considered just doing the roush rears and new dampers, then decided to go with the Steeda comps after talking to Sam Strano.

I installed Roush rears on my 08 vert. Before installation the rear (measured from floor to wheel opening) was 1" higher than front. After install rear was 1/4" lower than front, so overall rear drop was 1.25 inches. Being picky, I had a machinist friend make a set of 1/4" spacers and now front and rear are the same I haven't noticed much difference in ride quality and am happy with the end result.

i ran roush rears for awhile up until this weekend. They ride great and look very well overall. Swapped them out yesterday for Eibachs though. Just listed them in the classifieds for sale.
