New rims :)

I have new BAT kit with Eibach springs on my car. Installed last December.
This is how my car looks like with the drop.

It's a little bit cloudy so the tires look small, but you can see clearly the drop. The drop is supposed to be a little bit lower than the full BAT kit. The tires are 215/50/16 OEM size BFG Traction T/A. When it's getting warmer, summer tires 215/45/17 will be put on with the FordRacing 16 spokes rims.

Perhaps it's because you only have 16's on there, but that thing looks slammed, almost as low as GC's, and then I look at the wheelgap and it's deceiving. Looks good either way :)

Pretty sure Eibach Springs with BAT struts is not the BAT kit.:rolleyes: Thanks for being on topic though. :help:

LOL.

I traded my never mounted ST200 wheels with JED for the brand new kit. He bought from either BAT or SPMotorsports, and went with the 'upgraded BAT kit' by paying a little bit more $. I believe BAT is still offering this 'upgraded' kit if any one asks. The 4 struts are true BAT though.

I feel the rear is a little bit lower than the front. I will find a sunny day to take some pictures from a level ground and post the pics.

I think you missed the point. It doesn't matter if you bought eibachs from BAT, that is not the "BAT Kit".

And of course the rear is lower, you got eibachs.
