Default Height/ Koni Yellows

Searched! Nothing!

With my Neuspeed Koni Yellows set on the same height ( 1 from bottom), the rear sits approx. 1" higher in the rear. I want to equalize it a little, by lowering the rears to the lowest setting ( 1 lower than the front). I know that corner balancing is the way to go, but honestly I don't have the means. Have some of you all done this? If so did it noticably negatively effect the handling? I hate the way my car sits compared to other suspension kits I have had before. OBTW I have Neuspeed sports currently (the race were a little much for my town).

Thanks in advance.

Thanks for your response, but no, I am asking if it would upset the handling balance terribly (or if it is not recomended), if I lowered the rear to a lower setting than the fronts to balance out the dispostion.

what perch are the front springs on?

IMO the change in height is not enough to *seriously* effect handling. The only adverse effect I could see is bottoming out.

I would IM user CRX Lee he works @Koni and helped me choose my setup.

If there is an adverse effect It could also be counteracted by changing tire pressures, and adjusting rebound.

If you are that concerned w/handling to not make that small of a change, you should also be considering where you place things in your car, and how much gas you fill up w/etc.
