I had the megans but didn't like the back being lower than the front so I cut them. They still ride okay but not close enough to stock for my liking. Wanted to try something different till I can get coilovers

If that's the case then Megan spring it is because for some reason my GS4 is rear stock height is higher than the front and all the springs on the market are sold with the fronts are lower than the rears

This is mine with Megan Springs before and after I cut them which I think I went too far with, but I may have to go with df 210 because I don't want my front higher than the back

Before:




After:

df210 is a good springs... at that time, i really cant spend 380 on df as i spent 126 on my ksports....imm going to look into it... something is not right,.. plus i replacing the rear kyb.. so that wil adjust the bak, as the front...im going to take apart and reinstall again... if i got a gap, then i will buy the front camber which will help the drop and at the same time... its help with the performance and the tires...

Here are a couple of pics of when I had my KSport GT Lowering springs installed. I rode on them from 04/2010-08/2010. I loved the way there was less body roll, a lower stance, and still rode like factory. I got the full 2" drop all the way around. When parked, for some reason the front looks like it sits up high/unproportional to the rear. BUt, when driving the front sat lower. I have no idea why that occurred, maybe because they're considered a progressive rate spring? The rear definitely tucked tire. I'm on 275 30 20 in the rear and 2XX 35 20 in the front.

Sorry to highjack the thread. I'm on KSport Control Pro's coilovers now and love them.
