Isn't that nearly impossible? Difference in driver's weight can upset the corner balance. 150lbs driver versus a 250lbs driver can make quite a bit of difference. The right and the left coilovers did not come set up in different heights, so I doubt that they are corner balanced.

If you're talking about Front/Rear weight distribution, out of the box, the coils were set up with 689mm front, 690mm rear. But again, since the driver is no located in the dead center of the car, driver weight can change the front/rear distribution also.
FYI, I'm running F:669mm R:657mm, so I would've shifted the weight toward the rear with my current set up from the out-of-box setup.
Hotrodz and littlejuanito like this.
