So here's my take: I'm either a dumbass or a Maverick because I just completed a a 600 mile round trip in two days right after getting my 25 ST lowered with Eibach's. I also installed 1.25" spacers, and a Steeda engine brace the day before. It looks like proper planning prevented piss poor performance. The only problem was a star rock chip, and a two wobbly lug nuts (they have a tiny amount of play left, and right). Anyone know why?

I can't take any credit though. This forum and its members deserve the credit. Almost everything we need to know is right here. So, Thanks !

Not sure what you mean by “proper planning”. If your lug nuts are wobbling it’s likely that they are bottomed out and the lug studs are a hair too long or are not seated all the way in the spacer.
