    The fronts like 2 fingers n rear is prob almost 4. I'd have to check to be positive but it's noticeable. Did yours settle anymore or no?

    Just put my DNAs on my 01 GT. first impression not low enough in the rear. Quite a lot of rake. Ride quality is pretty good, though. For $78 shipped I'm happy.

    OK so I lived with it for almost a week. Couldn't stand the rake. Yup, got silly and cut one coil from my stock rear springs and put them in. car sits almost perfectly level now. Actually rides decent, too. Went down 1 3/4 inches from the DNAs. . The rear was taller than every other stock GP I saw. Anyone got stock wheel well measurements from a 97-03? Mine sits 27 3/8 in the front 27 1/4 in the rear. I'm hoping the front will settle just a little bit still.

    I installed SSC springs from Canuck Motorsports three weeks ago. They have settled out to 27" front and 28" rear with full tank. I bet stock rear spring would sit lower, not sure what to do? Do modify the SSC springs to keep same rate or re install original springs and hope they sit lower- or modify stock? Rear sits 28-1/2" with low fuel. Kinda pissed it seems the springs raised rear from before.
