I got the set from a member here on the Forum.
Not sure how much drop; but it had to be 2 inches plus. Looks great! But just too low.....unless I find a bad spring or strut.

I saw the pictures and thought it looked really good. Not sure why yours dropped so far. There was only one brand ever that I am aware of that dropped them so low and they were the yellow springs don't remember the brand name at the moment???
![]() I thought those were just ridicules to try and use on a street driven PT Cruiser anyway! |

But, it's not a show car. It's a day driver, and irritating. I may call Tien, and see if they will sell compatible replacement springs that are a little higher. First, replace my torn up wheel well liners.

OK!
So, I seem to have temporarily resolved my passenger side front tire rubbing/bottoming out on rough pavement. I ordered both a generic set of spring spacers; as well as a more robust circular set. I had to send the circular set back - too large - my measuring problem. In the mean time, while I was replacing my damaged front wheel well liners, I installed the generic spacers (3 of the 4 chock set) on the passenger side front. This is a pic of the generic ones. ![]() What I did was place them in where not loose; put a heavy duty zip tie around the spring and the rubber; and then another zip tie around the belly of the spacer to hold the other in position. Then, I pushed 2 of the spacers around towards the center of the car where they were still spaced, but tight! The third spacer was have been a little loose in place, but still locked in place with the zip ties; and then tight as I reloaded the spring by putting the wheel back on and dropping the car off the jack. Viola! I probably gained about 1/2 to 3/4 of an inch over the full drop. And, drove her over the roughest section of I-44 eastbound's concrete joints. Only had one rub on the whole trip. I can deal with that! ![]() ![]()
