Re: front suspension help

I used the Spohn strut mounts with 12 inch coil over springs. The strut mounts are taller and therefore drop the car an inch. Using the 12 inch spring instead of the 14's they have lowers another inch. My front is 26 and 1/2 inches, but I can lower to 26 using coil over adjustment. Front tire is a 27 inch tall on my car.
