Yes, my springs are original. The PO put on some kind of shocks with big springs around them that i think makes it sit high. It’s 27.25 inches high with 245/60/14 wheels. I figured that an inch under stock would be more like yours.

well with 245/45/17 tires and Hotchkis springs you’re going to drop about 2 3/8” in the back.

to make it look decent most people make the car look at least level wit the top of the front wheel lips at same height.

That will result in a low front. Don’t run headers other than Doug’s or TTI and no deep oil pans
