Are these progressive springs in the rear? If not they will mess up the AYC.

If these are completely settled then I'm not completely happy with them lol.

The front wheel well has a larger gap than the rears.

Will take pics and post maybe tomorrow ... but might be busy because I'm graduating tomorrow yippie!

Congrats on your graduation!
It is normal that the gap in front is slightly more than the rear unless you run height adjustable coilover.
Show us some pics!

Having a full tank of "liquid gold" might make a little difference possibly.
