Hi,

We have a serious problem with my friend's 65 fastback. He bought the same 620 lb in 1 inch drop coils as me. He installed them on the car but now his car sits about 10 cm higher than mine. His tire size is 245x60x14. Mine is 215x55x16. What might be the problem?

I dont know if it means something but you can check the following links for photos.. The one with the TTO2 rims is mine.

All springs are not the same even if they are advertised as such.

Drive it around for a few weeks to make sure it is all settled in (like you didn't torque the lower arm when the car was still on jack stands), check to make sure one doesn't have the shelby drop on the a arms, make sure you didn't add a spring isolator in one and not the other and if a short period of use the height is still not as desired cut 1/4 of the coil off.
 
I've got 620lb, 1" drop coils too. Nick is right about all springs not being made the same. It kinda sucks, but I like the drop it gave me.
