It took about a week, and it is back up about 1/4 inch after sitting up on stands for so many months. I will take her for a spin this wekend and that should settle her down again...

RotorManiac: Well I am taking her out tonight for a nice long spin... The weight came in at 22.5/23.5 (F/R), I also weighed the tires and they came in a little lighter than stock as they have less sidewall; in the end they are within 1-2 pounds from stock with very good feel and turn-in with increased limits... I am very happy with them...

Oh yeah, I like the way the rotors came out... I was waiting to see how much clearance I had with the HREs before getting the brake calipers, I will probably go with the project Mu ones if not Brembo...
