I neither bought Eibach or H & R springs (yeah I'm a cheap bas****).. I bought my springs off ebay almost two years ago and havent had any issues at all. Springs, install was 300 bucks. It rides rough as hell. I'm gonna put a grand in the suspension first of next year, so maybe that'll help out..

That pic just looks like the front wheel gap is worse than the rear. Thats what I saw in that pic. But I will tell you this much...on my car i measured the front to the top of the wheel well to be 28" i believe it was. Then i measured the rear to the top of the wheel well and it measured in at 27 3/4"...living proof that they sag in the rear. Now mind you thats with a 265 35 18 tire on the front and 295 35 18 tire on the rear. The taller tire in the rear helps even it out.

Yeah crash gotta hate those speed bumps. I don't know about you but no one drives me car except me. Reason? When I was rocking the Mach 1 bumper spoiler I let a friend drive my car.. He Went over a speed bump and ripped it off. His words to me were "My Bad." I was frigging pissed!!

Story time, So one night while drinking at a friend's house, We ran out of beer. This girl that was with us asked if she could drive my car. I'm like ehh, why not, she knew how to drive a stick. So anyways, this is around when the city was repaving all of the roads and the man holes where sticking up pretty ffing high. Well, you can figure out where this is going. She ran over two of em....I about cringed to death. After we got more beer I said I'll drive back to my friend's house. I was pissed after that ****. I'm just glad she didn't rip of a sway bar or any other **** like that. I only allow my gf to drive my car when I'm inebriated as ****. But even she knows better not to go over a speed bump and to go around.

Teej, maybe check your under carraige for bends or other **** messed up. Are verts heavier in the rear? Do you have th springs for a vert? Carey extra **** in the trunk?
