I mean mileage, im wondering how wear + altering cv angles plays into it all
If pitting is done before lowering you will get vibration, if lowering is done before pitting you wont.

Same here, i think the height i had it at placed the cv's and a straight angle which takes away the natural tension they have when at normal ride height. Going lower would be equal to raising etc. if you know what i mean.

brunohenrique, it's called Astro Black. It's a discontinued color. Sometimes looks dark grey, sometimes looks deep blue and sometimes looks black depending on the light.
