Front and Rear suspension measurements

ok, now that I've changed my rims and tires, it doesn't look like the gap in the wheel well has changed/improved at all!

right now from the top of my tire to the bottom of the wheel well, my front gap is: 3.375" and the rears are 2.75" which is a difference of .625"!!! That sucks! I which I had a digital camera available to me so I could show you this. So right now it seems the only springs that will come close enough to hiding this will either be the Tein h-tech's or s-tech's.

I'd prefer the look of the s-tech's much much more, but for some reason they seem to get a lot of negative reviews around here. Are they really that bad? The only thing I'm worried about is the tire rubbing against the wheel well - and my front sits exactly (I mean exactly) flush of the outside of my wheel well... is that bad?

You changed your rims and tires and expected the front/rear wheel gap difference to improve?

not the front to rear ratio, just the overall gap in general. My new rims overall diameter is bigger, so I thought it would close up the gap in the wheel well a bit more, but it hasn't at all.
