lowering just the front and not the back..is that ok?

hi all

looking to lower just the front with some tanabes as i think the rear is low enough...is it ok to just lower the front and not the back or does that leave the car unbalanced?

i feel as if the car is lowered on all 4 sides that the rear seems like it always sits lower than the front

Yes, you can do that and it wont hurt anything. Once you drop only the front, you may love it that way or you might feel the back is too high now. It would give you a nice raked look. Looking for Tanabe fronts?

Very true. It will cost a hell of a lot more though if all he wants it just to eliminate a little bit of front fender gap. The overall handling benefits are a lot greater though.

If your looking for a very precise look, go with some coils.
