lowering: need more drop front than back
I'm trying to find the right lowering springs for my setup. I've gone from SS OEM Goodyear's to 1LE size Michelin Pilot Sport 4s. The diameter difference leave the fronts about 1/2 inch shorter that the rears (so 1/4" goes to the wheel gap), and add that to the difference between OEM and MPS4S sizes and the wheel gap starts looking off-road capable.
I like the GT-character the car currently has, not looking to stiffen up more than needed to makeup for the shorter suspension travel. Has anyone mixed springs to deal with this situation? (it's got MRC) Here's a pic showing how noticeable it is: |

another pic
it's not quite as bad as this picture makes it look, I find a full tank of gas plus top down gets the rear to an acceptable gap. Maybe the downhill and shadows make this shot look particularly bad:
