Rear Wheel Gap

The rear end of my car sticks way up in the air because of the wheel gap. (My friend told me my car had a real big a55) It would be great if it were a bit lower but not by much. Is there such a thing out there as a set of just rear springs that would take the rear down about an inch without stiffening the ride at all? I like the ride just the way it is but want the rear a bit lower.

I've read up on the BMR springs but it is purchased as a set of 4 and even the lighter version drops the car too far for my purposes. Thanks for any help of suggestions.

many places will sell just the rear springs, and many people have done this. you might need to call the manufacturers directly to get only the rears, but it will save you some coin.
 
Just installed the Roush rear lowering springs. Little firmer ride, but still nice.

i have no clue how to down size my picture to post on here..

My springs should arrive early next week. I bought the H&R so I'm eating the front ones unless someone wants them.

BREDn07, i tried posting using your method and couldn't get anything either. If any one of us figures it out, please one of us tell the other.

Thanks everyone for the pics!! :nice:
 
Necessary to align rear?

I had WheelWorks do my springs. They're good but they take every opportunity sell you whatever the car needs. No rear alignment. They say if I decide to do the front, then a front alignment will be necessary.
