Help! Need pics of RX8 with Racing Beat Springs!

I am trying to eliminate the wheel gap that my 05 has in the front. the rear seems to sit nicely but the front of the car is pointed to the sky. i just want something that will level it out. i was considering installing just the front racing beat springs, but i cant find any pictures thru searching. Please help!

I wouldn't recommend just putting in springs only in the front because that can seriously muck with your handling. If you're gonna lower it and you can't seem to find the spring setup you want, then you can always go with coilovers but that can cost a whole lot more $$$. There are a ton of available lowering spring sets and some have more drop on the front than others.

When changing your springs you should do the front and back springs together. Also the racing beat spings all drop the car about a half inch all the way around.

RB springs will not drop the car enough to get rid of the gap. Search for the springs springs springs thread and you will see a bunch of pics with many different spring/shock combos and coilovers.
