Been Looking But Cant Find Good Pics
I have recently put stechs on my anni...... I must say alittle disappointed in the drop. It rides nice i just thought it would hug the tire more. They have been on for about 1200 miles. I was considering gettin new springs that went alittle lower. Can you guys post some pics of different springs? H&Rs always looked good and ride great on other cars......

did someone say pre-load?! Yup, that's what you gotta do to get the springs to settle properly

I can only fit one finger in between the tire and wheel well horizontally on all four corners, except the left rear and then I can barely get my pinky finger in there at a slight angle

Here's a High Res picture of mine on Sprint Springs... my front lip has 2" of ground clearance (basically the tall end of a credit card)

op - can you post a pic? i had the same reaction when i got my s techs done. can almost guarantee it's the preloading issue, which is a pretty easy fix. unless you want the car "slammed", s techs will get rid of the wheel gap entirely.

Seriously, how the hell do you guys get around town with only 2" of clearance or less? I'd be hitting speed bumps everywhere. Hell, just pulling into my uphill driveway and I'd probably hit....
