hey guys, thanks for the comments... to answer some questions, my springs are neuspeed sports with the 1.75 front and 1.5 rear drop...as far as spring rates, i think they are about 276 in front and rear but don't quote me on that. I'll post the definite rates when i find them..thanks!

yeah its pretty low in those shots, but its actually gotten a bit lower. i've had the springs on for about three weeks now and i guess they're settling, so they've dropped to about a 1/2 finger gap in the back and about the same in the front ...and yeah my tires look a bit dirty in that pic...ok really dirty

H&R Sport is about 275 front and rear, but I know the Neuspeed Sports have different rates front and rear (not sure what exactly though). I put my Koni spring perch on the lowest setting in back to get my car more even, and I can barely get a finger between the tire and the fender now. It's all good, though, the height of my fenders from the ground are all within 1/8" of each other on all 4 corners.
