I too had those Bilsteins installed on my car as well, but I have the BAT "lowering" springs and my car too doesn't seem to sit much lower and if it does, its not much. From what I've been told is that the gas charge is so stiff in the Bilsteins that it actually keeps the spring up. I'm sure someone will either come in here and confirm what I heard or rip the hell out of it. BTW, how do you like the handling of it now and why didn't you install new springs while you were in there
