Yes, even wear.

Why such a mild drop on the T2's? Just curious.

Haha yeah a few reasons - convenience (want to reach the center jacking points on the car), ease of mind (scraping on the street), and supposedly 20-25 mm does a decent job mantaining geometry. I'm currently a little higher than that, but if things don't settle I'll lower it another 5 mm in a few months.

Mine are currently about 25mm lower than stock. Looks like my control arms are almost parallel, so probably won't go any lower. I run in STX class, so no roll center correction allowed for me.
