Sorry to hear that u got defected dude, damn law enforcement.

U could potentially have u springs re set to a different ride height, they send them away to who ever made them and they just reset them to what cha want and then your done. Maybe go to the place u got the springs from and ask them.

Good Luck

Also i believe that the legal ride height is 100mm (you ll have to check this is the same in every state) so just make sure your over 100mm and ull have no problems.

That is 100mm from the lowest part of your car eg could be your muffler

hey i remember when i went crusing with you, your car was the same ride height as mine and mines like 200mm did u lower your car?

anyway take it to any mechanic and slip an extra $50 subtlely and it will be cleared without any changes :lol: trust me it works, not that i condone such behaviours!

Teins are height adjustable! Just get it raised up to whatever height you need...

Cost you less than 50 bucks at a suspension place!

Just don't forget to do a wheel alignment after you adjusted the suspension. :wink:
