Hey guys!

I bought a brand new set of BC Coilovers from Nextmod and Ive had them for about two months now. The other I lowered my car to the lowest possible setting. The ride height looks ok, the only issue is there is a height difference from the front and the back. It looks like the front is slightly higher than the back. Again both front and back have been lowered on the lowest possible setting, and all 4 rims are the same size. I was just wondering is this a common issue, or is there a problem with my particular set.

Thanks.

the front wheel arches are bigger to accomodate the tires turning

is your car actually lower on the back? or are you looking at wheel gap only?

No the car is actually lower on the back. You can tell the car sits lower in the back than the front.

Do you know what spring rates and lengths you have?

To be honest I have no idea, its whatever that comes in the box.

So after getting in touch with BC they said that when you drop the car to the lowest level you're always going to get a tilt. Just a heads for people who might experience a similar issue.
