which one is lower?......

Which one of the lowering springs available to the 4th gen is lower in the front compared to the back. I have H&R right now and after installing my subwoofer box and the rest of my car audio/video equipment in the trunk, my front is noticeably higher. I want an even look but i don't want to spend too much on coilovers by JIC and Cattman and i didn't like the annoying noise that was present when i had Ground Controls. Thank guys for the info, by the way i tried searching and it didn't have anything related to the height difference between the front and back of each lowering spring kit.

i don't know if there are any springs that are drastically lower in the front than in the back....just get some sprints and call it a day.

Any car, any spring, unless you have a load leveling system or ajustable coil overs will show added weight in the trunk by making it sit slightly lower.


The remarkable phenomenon is called gravity.

You would think this would be the case. But i have sprints and i figured with my subs (2 15's in a big *** box w/2 foot amp)it would drop my back end and inturn make the drop even. Yet the front still has finger gap and rear has about 2 finger gap.

sprint and progress give you a lower drop in the front.

sprint has a low drop and the front end seems to sit lower, but you should have just cut the springs before installation, but i doubt that anticipated the rear to sag lower

Just checking for other options other than cutting the springs. I can cut the springs in less than an hour. (remove /cut/ replace)
