    There are many places where there are pics of F8's lowered post your F8 lowered here and how low you went. Before and after pics would be awesome.

    Too low IMO I think it looks a bit odd and probably a nightmare to drive as you’d have to use the lifter all the time

    All on stock components, no difference in ride at all. The dealer did the work for me, lowered on coilover and new alignment.

    Looks great! I ordered the novitec springs I kind of wish I lowered it in stock like you did and save some money…

    Looks great, very similar to mine. You should be happy, just be careful with the rear diffuser fins, when entering/exiting driveways.

    So I understand correctly you were able to have your dealer lower your car on stock springs??? Ferrari makes coil overs for the F8?

    F8 comes stock with height adjustable coilovers. They’re really designed to adjust the corner weight of the vehicle and slightly lower it some. If you try to go as low as the cars on this thread that are using Novitec (KW) springs then the stock spring will be out of its designed parameters and they ride and handling suffer. You can easily drop and corner balance the car down 10mm or so but further than that say more than 14mm things suffer.

    Scott, to confirm Ferrari of Central NJ adjusted your stock springs. Is that the lowest setting and do you have spacers as well? I really like the way that looks and I want to replicate your set up. Did you have to wait a bit for the springs to settle also?
