My car seems to sit abnormally high in the front. I was reading other posts about lowering just the front end which got me thinking I should measure from the ground to the highest point of my fender in the wheel well. The rear is 25 5/8" and the front 27 3/16". That is 1 9/16" higher in the front. The only contributing factor I can think of is the Michelin PSS's I just had installed. Rear 275/30ZR19 and Front 245/35ZR19. The front is 1/4" taller than the rear.
Is my car much higher in the front than most, specifically those with the same tire set up I have.

 

The gap is way bigger in the front compared to the rear. That's why I only dropped the front on springs. My rear is on OEM springs and it looks dropped.

 

Well I guess that answers it then! Any issues with scrapping the ground or snow etc?

 

If you have 08-09. If you want a set of swift springs pm me, I was gonna sell them when my BC's come in.

 

No dice ....it's a 2012

 

Sorry for the bad cell phone pics but here's how my car looks after one week dropped on swift springs. The gap to me is perfect now so I'd definitely recommend this setup.

 

PrezJay are you dropped all around or only the front? My 08 has stock suspension, and for some reason (a good one) mine looks even all around. I noticed that MY11, 12, 13 all look higher in the front.

 

^^I'm dropped all around. The stock gap difference between the front and the back was about 2 fingers. It's pretty close to even now.

 

PrezJay, thanks for the pic's.....the drop is spectacular! Did you do front and rear and ever get scraping taking steeper driveways?

 

I haven't experienced any scraping after the drop. I take most driveways and speed bumps the same as I would stock so you should be good to go . I don't think you'll have an issue unless you get a lip kit.

 

That's funny.....must have posted simultaneously. Thanks again for pix and info

 

Eibachs in front only here.
No issues with alighment, less taxing on the factory shox.
Drop is 0.7 inch.......no scrapping.

 

One other thing, what size rubber are you sporting?

 

another happy driver with only the front dropped on swift springs here...great mod, im really happy with it. No rubbing on my 245/35/19s either. i did rub with 40's though on the front and back of the fender wall...initial order error.

 

Ive got a 2012 and dropped on Swift Sport Springs. PM Mike from FIGS Engeering, vendor on here, for the best deal around. Overall im satisfied I got rid of the wheel gap but I want to go lower so ill be looking into coilovers sometime in the near future. If your on a budget and want to lower your car but dont want to compromise comfort and driveablity, Swift is the way to go.
