Ground Control Coilover max height issues
I have a 99 Sedan and have ground control coilovers with koni orange struts. I did not intend on lowering the car too much as I commute 100 miles a day. I have adjusted the coilovers as high as I can get them, but I am still at a 1 finger gap in front at most. I have attached a picture of how they are adjusted and a picture of how the car sits. Can anybody tell me if this looks correct? Any tips on adjusting further as I absolutely can not turn the adjuster any further? If not, anybody have any eibach pro kit springs they want to trade, lol.
Thanks for any help.

1 finger gap?? You must have the worlds biggest fingers.
Are you sure you have the correct springs on the front and rear? Pro kit springs will be about the same height as your car already is.
You can go higher by about 1" it llooks like you have .75" of thread length left. Why can you not turn it higher?
Be careful not to over adjust past the thread.

You cannot get to stock ride height with ground controls without a lot of preload, which is really not a practical thing with the length of the normal gc springs.
Basically, you can't, so don't expect it.

Yes, I am not a young buck and I commute 100 miles a day on some crap roads, that paired with 75mph and it just isnt what I expected.
I have been lower with other civics I have had in the past, but I was younger and did mostly city driving.
