The car only has 55k miles on it, I would think (hope) the stock suspension isn't worn out by then. Also worn shocks really shouldn't affect the height, they just control dampening. The spring is what sets the height, and the components on either end of the spring between the spring and the LCA at the bottom and the frame at the top.

I just hear about other people being able to tuck their wheels into the fender with KW coilovers, and I'm no where near being able to do that. I feel like I did something wrong or the kit is not advertised accurately.

It rides very nice. Decent upgrade over stock, but not a night and day difference. Maybe on a track I would notice more of a difference.
