It's been a week now and here are the before & after specs:

Front drop = 1 5/8"
Rear drop = 1 1/4"

I'd say the car rides about 5% stiffer than stock, same stock tires & wheels.

I just put Falken FK452 tires on it too (RX8 rims) and they're a 95 load index (stock = 93). I've adjusted the PSI down to 35 all around and it's a better ride now (like stock again).

I think the drop is PERFECT!

And ya I know I need a tint - it's coming.

I had Eibach Pro Kit before my Megans. Megans are Linear which is needed with the heavy MS6 rear. Eibach are progressive, not that good for the heavy weight.

Those are not stock MS6 wheels. You indicated same "stock tires and wheels".

I put the RX8 rims on after the measurements and comparisons I mention.

I hear ya on the prgressive vs linear thing but my back end ain't sagging at all as you can see - in fact the front dropped more.
