slightly higher than stock ?

Maybe the drop in front is more than the one in back which actually tilts the car ... could be an optic illusion !!

The rear is going to sit a little higher.....they are designed to do that so when you add passengers, it will sit level.

Most springs will drop the front more, check the specs...

Its messed up its like they purposely made the after springs to hold this stance but lower when i looked up springs they all seemed to be lower in the front and less in the rear but i see all these xa's on line looking level and low with there wheels perfectly filling in the wheel well what gives do i have to but adjustable struts from tein or something or is there spring that'll do the job plus people talk about putting 19in and 20 in rims on this car how would you do that and still lower the vehical for that look i would think with 20's the car would be sitting like a truck lol i dont understand the concept hook it up with some good places for rims i want bronze 18 possibly thanks for your help i love this scion culture deal its pretty sweet

sorry for all the errors in here im in a rush im leaving work in like 5 mins
thanks again
