Car sits uneven after lowering
Car sits uneven after lowering
His probably has been covered before but mobile app wouldn't find anything covering it here on the org
But i bought a 5th gen maxima lowered 1.5 inch with dc lowering springs and it's really bugging me that the front sits noticeably higher than the rear. It almost looks stock in the front ,
Anyway what's my best bet ?
Cut the lowering spring
By 2inch lowering spring for the front only
Idk what to do and u like the wheel gap in the rear

Did you get it inspected thoroughly before buying? Very more important since that thing's lowered
What's in your trunk?
It could be due to the rims, making you THINK there's a bigger wheel

I think something shady is going on for the front

you could possibly have a different springs sitting or as they called it "clocked" wrong way on the struts or something is else on other suspension componets such as strut mount are worn out, since they are made of harden rubber
Not nearly enough information here to even attempt a proper diagnosis.
1. Please provide specific measurements from floor to center of each fender...while the car is on level ground
2. (Assuming proper install) I've never heard of DC springs. Are you sure that's what's installed? Are you sure they're meant for your 5th gen Maxima? If so, what are the lowering measurements of the springs? That will be your first indication if the drop should even be level.
3. Worn suspension components will not cause any fluctuations in ride height. Only ride quality.
4. Assuming the springs are correct for your car, assume an improper install. Check to make sure springs are properly seated on perches.
