Okay everyone this is my first time owning a s197 so bare with me lol i just installed lowering springs front and rear with new struts and strut mounts up front it was only supposed to drop the front 1.375" and the front is bottomed out the bottom three coils on the spring are resting on each other. I've tried everything any ideas?

Sounds like the lowering kit you got was not the correct match. Can you return it or get them to send the correct front springs?

Yeah i think they sent me diffective springs there way to short to run on struts at all. Working on getting refunded then springs are going in scrap heap

The "lowering" springs fronts measure 11" top to bottom
