Problem with lowering rear of car...
I recently had my arospeed coilovers put on my car and for some reason the front lowered great...nice tuck into the wheel wells and everything , but for some reason the rear end wont lower down , I can't figure out why it won't lower. If anyone can give me some insight, it would be great...thanks

Are you sure that u put the springs in the back? Maybe u forgot. Did u measure before and after u installed the springs? If the springs dont lower as much as Arospeed says they will, send it back to em and have em give u ones that will.

i dont think the aerospring coilovers in the rear lower as far as the front... (b/c the gap in the front is 1/2 bigger than the rear) so i wouldnt expect as much travel in the rear.

Yeah...one of my boys told me to weight my trunk down so I'm bout to do that now. The ride is really pretty good for coilovers. Just be sure not to slam the front all the way down, except at car shows and ****, if you try to drive with the front slammed, the innner side of your struts will beat into your inner fender wells, take it from me, its not a pretty site. I lowered my back all the way down and without the weight they are about 1/2 and inch from the tire well, the front is lowered just to where the start to enter the tire well. But it handles GREAT around corners and on the highway.
