Default Hmmm, Car sits a little higher in the front then it does in the back...

Well this other day I was looking at my car and the back sits a little bit lower then the front does. The car came stock with the bilstien suspension on it. Is there any lowering springs that I could just use for the front? I dont wanna slam the car in the front just lower it down a little bit to be about even with the back. Anyone know of any good lower spings to just lower the front by maybe a half of inch to an inch or so? Thanks

Raise the back. It's much easier.

What do you mean raise the back? Put different springs in the back? I wouldn't really want to do that though because I would rather have it a little lower then high.

You can shim the rear springs with heater hose. Do a search for it. There is plenty of info.

I have the Eibach Pro Kit and sometimes my car looks a little low in back. I think it is the wheel well, the arch on the fender in the front goes higher than in the back because of the way the stance is from the factory (little higher in back). When I lowered it I started to notice that.

So how can you raise the back a little? Are there spacers? Oh, not meaning to hijack your post or anything....

My brother took a piece of hard thick plastic from home depot and cut it to fit the top of the spring, it raised it up perfectly
