Anyone's front sit higher than your rear(cars we're talking here lol) I always have noticed that it looks like the front of my car sits higher. I know the gap from rear tires to fender is smaller than the front tires to fender. My car came with the slp eibach springs and bilstein shocks. What do you guys think would be the best way to lower my front maybe.75 of an inch to an inch. I'm thinking maybe an adjustable shock would help but not sure it will get the car lowered enough. Thanks for any help guys.

I have that problem with my set up. Then i looked under the car and realixed that someone put blue springs on the car and took the OEM springs out. I am in the process of getting the OEM springs on order to hopefully fix my issue.... we'll see i guess.

Check with your slp options, mine are blue too but they are the slp eibach springs that came with it the car. Are your shocks blue and yellow? If so you have the upgraded suspension package that came on some ss models which you prolly already know that but just in case. If you do switch out the springs in the rear let me know how it turns out.

My car came with the Bilstine performance package but the springs aren't supposed to be blue are they ... yes the shocks are blue and yellow. The springs are supposed to be black IIRC. At least thats how they come here....

I have the same problem but its because I have a tubular k-member/a-arms on my car. I have bilsteins and maroon eibachs. I never noticed the reverse rake look until I installed the k-member/a-arms.
I have a set of HAL coil-overs I was going to put on my other car, but I may install them on the SS to correct the problem.
The car does hook better the way it is now though, so I may just let it ride.
