Many moons ago, I installed the progress 1.8" drop on my car. After installation, I could get about 2.4 fingers between the tire and fender. I checked again today and I cant even get 1 finger in the backa nd like 1.8 in the front! what the fuck is wrong with this shit? Saggin like a granny. POS linear springs. My dad is all aup on my shit cause he dosent think I should spend more money on springs (I dont live at home or anything, We just BS about our cars alot) But my junk is dropping low and Im gonna be tucking 16's in a hurry here. Time to get the Eibach Sportlines I guess. Anyone else with progress springs have issues?

Could it be the shocks/struts (whichever they are)?

shocks and struts are almost new. SPAX adjustables. Even when I had the springs on BLOWN stock struts, it was higher. I like that its low but I'm worried how much lower it will get.

i had the Ptogres Springs on my Focus. I had them on the stock shocks/struts for over a year, before i got rid of it. I had no issues. Or at least i didnt notice anting.

I'd try to send em back. I know someone who had probs with Intrax springs. Turned out it was a bad batch of springs that were sent out. They replaced em for free.
