Lowering Springs gen 6 RS

Hello. I recently installed some D2 racing pro lowering springs (1.4" drop) to front and rear of my 2019 RS. its been 5 days and only rear looks lowered. the front still looks stock. Doesn't look like it even lowered any. Does anyone have an idea of what could cause this? Or what stock height measures?

Front is at 27" 5/8. Thanks

Post some pictures... Did you not do "before and after" measurements?

I did not. If I would have known it wouldn’t look lowered I would have measured. I did post pics after though.

It looks lower. But when you look at it parked. It looks like the back is way lower than the front. There’s about a 2 finger gap. And rear is about 1 finger.

Looks lowered and level to me. No reason to get anal over it. Move on and enjoy your car!

No scraping at all. It’s only a 1.4” drop. Running 275/35 fronts and 295/30 rears.

Search google:

"timing the bushings camaro5.com"

A few suspension bushings need to be set to the new static ride height. Anti roll bar mounts included.
