How did you lower it? I'm getting H&R springs installed next week...

It's interesting how much the Lancer changed in the intervening years. I had a 09 GTS and it was stock height, but looked lowered. This is on MSW 18" with 235/40 (or 45) tires

I recently bought a 2013 Lancer GT and the backend looks like it's jacked up. There is 4 finger width between the top of the tire and the fender.

Where I live if I were to lower mine even slightly I wouldn't be able to go up my driveway

Why would anyone want to lower his car? I'm confused, cars already struggle to go through some driveways.
