Question Ride height?

Not sure if I'm just being paranoid, but seems like my '15 F-Sport RWD is riding just a tad too high:



Here's another profile pic in a different place:


Am I crazy or are you seeing it too? Is this wheel gap (especially in the front) normal for a RWD?

I mean it looks a little like an AWD but I thik an AWD is a little more of a gap than you have.

The wheel gap on these cars sucks. I think that the AWD has a little more of a gap but I don't think its that big of a difference. I would recommend dropping it with coilovers so that you can adjust the height to your liking. I have an AWD with RSR coilovers and dropped it around 2.2" in the front and 2.7" in the back as mine was sitting higher in the back.

do you think you can measure the height of the car from the floor to the fender in front of the center of the wheel?
