Uneven drop - Swift springs on X
Anyone else have their awd sedan end up like this? It seems as though the front dropped more than the rear, and is lower than most other G's with my set-up. Installed are the NV36 4N907 Swift Springs with stock oem struts and rear SPC camber/toe kit.
Car was aligned, in front has 2 deg neg camber and 0.05 deg toe. Cross camber 0.2 deg, total toe is 0.09 deg. In rear, neg 1 deg camber and 0.06 deg toe. Cross camber 0.2 deg, total toe is 0.18 deg.
Car drives fine, just curious about the height. Any thoughts?

Totally normal. I have same setup(with front rear/camber kits) except I have 20" rims, I noticed the rear sits higher than front too. I once had two passengers in the back and some heavy luggages, the springs got compressed so much that got me worried, however there wasn't any rubbing. I guess they design the springs with the mind that rear should withstand more load than front?

Looks about right...I think the rear looks to be a bit higher than mine.
Not sure if there will be any difference since mine is '13

Looks fine to me. And just wanted to make sure you said you already added a camber kit or just having some camber? I have the same drop my self small amount of camber to the point where three different places told me to save my money on a camber kit.

Thanks, car rides very good. The biggest difference is when large bumps are encountered, it is a little harsh and jarring. I am sure upgrading the struts would eliminate this, but it really is not bad. I used to have an STi that had suspension mods, so this car rides very smooth in comparison.
My installer who usually works on Z/G's recommended it. It is not necessary as I think you would only get a few degrees negative camber without. Not sure if rear toe is adjustable stock?
Thanks. Yes, just a rear camber kit is installed.
