Just went out in garage and fronts are hanging at 17” I did drive the car about 25 miles and filled the gas tank and I’m at 17 3/4 on rear. I think I’m happy with it. Someday somebody might sit in the back seat. Lol. Plus if I really want to get in something lower our C8 fits the bill.
I measured the heights again today and I'm at 17" in the front and 17 3/4" in the rear. So they do look like there are settling some. I just had another alignment done this morning.
Mine with H&R’s is 17” f/r but the rear of mine doesn’t really count with the extra audio weight. That won’t effect the front though and these Lethal springs were advertised as a lower option than H&R…which they pretty clearly aren’t.

This is exactly what I've been asking them, put one side by side and lets see visually how different they are, if measurements are coming out to be the same, the hecks the difference lol

I cant remember where but there is a comparison and Lethals looked lower. Might even be on their website. (sorry bad memory)
If you read thru the posts it seems none of the springs are consistent. It could be measuring errors the different years or just the way it is? But seems 17" in front is the lowest posted so far (HR and Lethal springs both) Lethal 17.5 in back seems to be the lowest from whats posted. there was even a poster with steedas that were as low as Lethals.
Can those listing measurements also include how long you've had the springs on your car? i have a feeling settling continues past the first few weeks, although less.
2-3 coils touching is nothing abnormal with many progressive springs, especially H&R. They maybe inactive at resting position but when the wheels drops down on the road, they will soften the return to compression. I've had the same on H&Rs with two previous setups.
Installed Steeda springs on 2/9/23. Measured today and front is 17 3/4 and rear is 18 3/8's. So pretty consistent with many measurements seen here and pretty much what they advertise. I measured a stock unit here at work and front is 19 1/4 and rear is 19 1/2.
