    Prob have to pay someone to put the front on but i'll prob put the rear on.. I have the TSB done as of now and going to AAL to the rear here when i get the coils as well.

    As far as the lean, i talked to a bunch of people around here (Dealers, Shops, Friends) and they said they they shouldn't have a lean to them with the Bilstein setup? Any verification of this?

    No you won't lean unless you set the bilsteins at 2.5
    to compress your stock coils... and even then it will only
    fix the factory rake (level it) and your ride will suck!
    Just set the bilsteins at zero with new coils..
    if your going to get new ones soon, don't assemble them onto your
    stock coils just wait so you don't have to pay twice.

    Yeah that's what I'm doing. I'm ordering Eibachs and setting the billies at .85 with the billies. Rear tsb done with the billies and a 1.5" AAL is what I'm going for. So around 2.5" total lift. I think it looks the toughest; not to high or low.
