What ride height did you end up setting at? Is the front perch above the tire? Did you have to use spacers in the front? What size wheel and tire on the front?

So I have Dinan plates on top of my top hats, add an extra 3-4mm of height (so the perch has to be lower). At a 1.5 finger gap I have the perch just at the top of the tire. With the stock 261 18x7.5" ET47(?), wrapped with a 225/40-18 there is a very little strut clearance, but no rub.
I test fitted my ET45 18x8.5" VMRs with a 245/35-18, and there is veryyyyy little strut clearance. I have 5mm spacers on the way.
Spacers are not expensive but Swift Spec-R springs help fitment since the spring is a lot shorter, so the perch sits way higher and away from the tire.
