you're going to ride (bounce) on the bump stops being that low. should've just cut your springs.

Default Just a throught, I think your car being lighter than stock MAY have something to do with

you not being able to lower it to your specs. But seriously man 24"s is pretty damn low! You are most likely going to have some rubbing/bump stop bouncing issues at that hieght. Put in the spare and see how much lower the rear gets.
