Default question about l-tuned springs and shocks

hey, maybe I am wrong here but I just noticed that the gap is bigger for my front wheel than my rear wheel. I thought l-tune springs lower the front little more than rear. am I right? then is it suppose to have smaller gap for rear then front? I thought maybe it was 2 golf bags in my trunk but its the same when I empy the trunk. I am taking my car back to dealer to have them swith the front and back next wednesday but wanted to found out for sure that I am right.
thanks

Kap...

i have heard similar thing too...actually L-tined are fairly even front and back, very mild drop, at least from the ones i have seen...that is why i was hoping you would wait for my set...

or a remore possibility..the guy installed them backwards...:eek:

Please keep us updated on this one and what they found out for you. I'm having the L-Tuned Shocks, Springs and ECU installed soon and want to make sure everything is correct too!

Thanks!

I have seen many pictures where there is more gap in front than back so it must be pretty common.

I REALLY dislike it too.

One guy on CL actually put some spacers in the rear to level it out.

There is no way that the front springs are on the back and vice versa. Sorry Will.

Not sure what you can do besides replace them.

Maybe try calling L-Tuned.

Good luck.
