ride height, wtf Options

[Mike]

I was looking at the wheelwell gap between the fender and my wheels today and i noticed something odd... aat the front the gap is large, thus the car looks like it's riding at a normal ride height, but at the back the gap is smaller.. it looks almost like i have lowering springs on the back of my car (which i don't) is there any reason why the car would look like its "squatting" like this?

is this the case for anyone elses car?

i was thinking of correcting it by getting springs that would give me a 1 inch drop in the front and leave it at that..

edit: i just measured the wheelwell gaps: 3.4inch in the front and 2.3 in the rear
whats goin' on

My car does the same thing. I think that it is more common in the hatchback than the coupe models because of the extra weight. I also think that the rear springs and shocks just cant hold up like the front ones because they were made to carry the weight of the engine. You could just replace the front springs but most companies sell their lowering kits as four springs. If you had the money the best option would be to repace all of the springs and shocks and with lowering springs and KYB GR2 shocks. It would fix the problem.
