Lowering springs
Hey guys! So I got SR performance lowering springs on my 2013 v6 and I installed them about April-May time frame and the car I'm guessing has settled all the way. It was advertised as a 1.5" drop on all 4 wheels but I've only gotten maybe an inch lower. There's still a nice .5" gap I want to get rid of. So any suggestions on new springs?
It's just a bit lower than this:

Don't get the Eibach Pro Kit. Maybe slightly lower than the SR springs, but not by much. I'd look at the Sportlines or H&R Supersports. You may need CC plates and panhardbar with them as well. I don't really like the pro kit. Not low enough. I want almost zero gap. I'm waiting until my shocks go out before switching over to a new setup.

The rides not bad. Was pretty bouncy at first but it tightened up. I'm running them on stock shocks and struts so it's been good

There's where she sits now and you can see the gap I'm talking about. I would like to tighten that space up. Another guy from the forum told me when I upgrade my struts and mounts and all that that ill go down .5" again but idk if that's true

Yeah I can. My roush front splitter doesn't let me though so I usually park in reverse. Or I don't pull forward all the way. Speed bumps aren't a problem either.

This is TRUE for my setup.
