Thanks for responding, Les. I have the correct brake pads (HP Plus) and tires (Bridgestone 71-RE). I don't know the mm of the stock spring pads and whether thinner pads will lower the car significantly, but I'll find out. Also, I'm going to get more negative camber in the front and get the front toe as close to zero as I can stand as I drive the car on the street. I appreciate your comments and plan to use them.
