sometimes you have to look at the body lines rather than gaps because with my mazda6i the back looked lower because of the gap, but the front wheel well was bigger. which is something you will notice in your pic you posted. your car is actually pretty level. have a good one :)

heres my sedan on DF's. Note i also cut bout an 1 1/2 off of the bump stops..

the instructions say to cut off the bump stops..thats why your fronts are higher...... make sure you get good alignment too. mine went off by -40 toe...

compare the before pics.. big difference.. glad i didnt listen to most and go with NF's

right now (and someone correct me if I'm wrong) I believe TRD is the only company that has an aftermarket shock/strut. So you can look up some reviews and get those, or you can wait for another company to come out with something new.

I've had em for a while and i'm getting the trd shocks

the car seems more bumpy over bumps now

got another pic today (had to brighten it up to see the wheels better).. same, someone's sitting in the back, no one in the front. does it look normal to you in this pic? the drop i mean.. with passenger weight in the back only

could it be the 175 tire width?

wushu what are you asking? if you have the stock shocks in back and ppl sitting in it..of course it will lower..upgrade your rears to stiffer or adjustable racing shocks..will also get better handling too. it has nothing to do with your tires..

I have the same set up (df210 springs only). Well, not really because I replaced my tires/wheels but this is how it looked before the drop:

Ahhh, well tell who ever is back there to walk because your car looks lopsided when they are back there. Problem solved.

And thanks loafer
