I just got off the phone with Derrik. I told him I had literally 2" of wheel gap with my 17s and he said that "doesn't seen right" He asked me to read the numbers from the springs to him, and again replied that that "doesn't seem right" so he's going to check on that and get backt to me Tuesday... so maybe there is hope, nope.. lol

Every single MX3 i've seen with any kind of lowering spring has always had ridiculous wheel gap in the rear that didn't look right.

Main reason I bought GC's....sure they have a rough ride, but with the ZX2 SR struts they aren't bad at all.

Ever think that maybe your problem is the KYB struts? they are meant as OEM replacements, not for performance lowering. They wouldn't be able to handle a 1" lowering, let alone a 2" like you likely had on your car.

I have almost no gap in the rear with my H&R springs. More gap up front actually.

Really hope you solve it, as I`m dying for coilovers :)

Just to jump in...I have very little wheel gap in the rear, in fact I have 4" or less of clearence. For some reason my rear sits lower. So I was looking to lower JUST the front (2")...is this possible?

Ya, Derrik called bacl and sait those were the right part numbers... He also said they installed them on some car once and it had like 1.25" of wheel gap - which is unacceptable.. so I'm returning them for softer interna GC springs.. sorry.... ;)
