    Hey guys,

    How can I adjust height on stock springs? I heard it can be done. I want to lower a little bit. Is it similar to coilover adjustment? Stock springs on the adjustable perches like coilovers.

    Thanks in advance.

    It can be done I guess -if I correctly understand UR question-.
    But may I ask Y would U want to do it in the first place?
    I mean the car is low already (with lifting kit off obviously:)).
    Don't 4get the car has a very powerful engine, and with all the aerodynamic stuff going on with the body, playing with height is not a great idea in my opinion.
    Plus, I guess doing so would void guarantees on the car in case of any future problems.
    I would highly recommend to think twice b4 deciding to get UR self into SMTH like that.
    TC...

    I would recommend installing Novitec springs

    Rather than cutting OEM springs.

    I heard some installing TDF springs as well.

    I lowered mine on stock springs but if you have a lift you are limited on the adjustment. This is as far as you can go but it was enough for me.

    The reason why I want to lower is that I just got 21/22" wheel set up and the fender gap seems more due to a lower profile tires. I don't want to slam with lowering springs just minor drop is all I want.

    Like I said above I don't want too low with Novitec springs. I just want to reduce the fender gap a little bit.

    That looks great. How much lower is that? I would be fine with that height. I don't have a lift system.

    Thanks for the pic!

    I dont recall the exact adjustment but I want to say about 1/2" in the front and the rear to balance it out.
