Rear end lower than front end
 
Ive noticed that the rear end of my car is lower than the front end. More specifically, theres about an inch more clearence between the front tire and wheel well, than in the back. It always looks the same regarless if I have a full or empty tank of gas. Does it even out when you sit in it or something? Theres absolutely nothing in my trunk to weigh it down.

The ride/handling doesnt seem to be affected by it. Its just one of those things that stands out probably only to me since its my car. However, Ive noticed that a few other 8's on the forum, that look the same.

The stock car height was like that. The front fender wheel gap was bigger than the rear fender wheel gap. It is the reason I got S-techs on my car right now.

Thanks for the info, I may have to lower the front end to it even it out.

I wonder if the MS springs/shocks even this out? Or if they have the same front higher than the rear "problem"...

Check your trunk. You've probably been doing too much haulin' ass. :mdrmed:

the MS springs/shocks combo lower 0.75" all around, so you'll still see the front having more wheel gap than the rear.
