whats good guys-
i recently installed BC racing spec coilovers on my '06 and the fronts are not going as low as they should be. I believe i maxed them out and i still have a solid 1 finger gap between the tire and the fender. I am not looking to completely slam my ride but am just testing waters. I have not messed with the preload but i turned the coilover clockwise all the way to the max. (I was expecting the car to be sitting on the ground by this adjustment?) I know it's something probably small, stupid and noobish but could someone help a brother out?

give them a day or two to settle..they might go lower with the weight on the car on them for a couple days...and suspension components almost always settle lower then initially set
did u preload the control arms? after u put the coilovers on loosen the uper control arm jack the spindle up to the hight u think the car will be ridin at and then tighten fully
Are you sure you are adjusting the height and not the preload? I have BC race on my AP1, and I've had to raise the car twice to keep the tire from rubbing in the front. When I first installed mine, the car was on the ground. You should be able to get yours as low as anyone would want with these.
