2K2 Wheel Gap

Has anyone notice that the wheel gap in the front is bigger than rear?? Mine is like that. I really like the wheel gap in my rear, cuz its really small, but the ones in the front are "BIG". I don't really want to lower my car, cuz I think rear is already low enough, any suggestions?

Man, gaps suck, just get stiffer springs if you don't want to lower it

if you don't want to lower your ride with harsh riding springs, get Koni!

Sure, just buy two lowering springs and just install them in the front. Pretty straight forward.

I've noticed that in my max. It's become more noticable with my 18's. I was going 30 and stepped on it, I saw the hood raise up out of no where.
