I was just going with the whole adjustable spring idea. You can't adjust all air rides while driving either.

Mike, have you had the alignment checked yet? From the pics (nice!!) there appears to be some negative camber in the front now. That'll wear the fronts on the inside pretty quickly.
How about letting us know if you get it checked and if you do, how the alignment ended up and what was needed to correct it, whether with factory adjustments or if a kit (usually offset bolts) was needed.
Lookin' good!! Thanks!

Just curious. When you lower a car it enables you have more room for bigger tires/rims. Based on the posts this is my understanding. I personally never lowered a car before but I have seen plenty of them in person.

No, it gives you less room in your wheel well possibly causing clearance issues. If you are plus sizing your rims there is usualy no problem because only the rim size is increasing not the outside diameter of the tire. Tubbing or raiseing gives you more room in your wheel wells for a bigger tire/rim combo.
