So I have KYB AGX's and GC sleeves and recently picked up some Evo 8 wheels and am wondering what thread I should have the coilovers set at to have fender sitting right above the tire. I'd figure it out myself, but I figured I'd ask so I don't have to spend hours jacking my car up and down.. The tires are 235/45/17's. A stance exactly like this, maybe a tad higher:

Weight of the car, spring sag, etc, etc...you gotta do it the hard way.
 
Set all of them to the same thread initially, lock the collar, set the car on the ground, then just measure. I think it took me 3 good tries to be happy with the setup initially....first attempt had the wheels up in the fender liner. ;)
