Coilover?
Just installed Coilovers from Van Steel today went on great no problems. Well I went to lower the car and even with it all the way adjusted the car still sits way high. I have a 255-35-18 on the front and its like four inches from the top of the tire. I have seen pics of cars with this set up and look nothing like this. I know it will settle some but not that much. Any help would great. Thanks

Call VS. You may need a softer or different spring. They will work with you. I have their setup on mine also. Sits slightly higher than I want but I have not driven it yet either. Mine was a little low before with the vette brakes setup. I had it set that way but there was not much suspension travel. Great for auto cross but on the real world street it was a little tough.

what bump stops are you using? make sure they arent touching.
did you get the double adjsutable or triple adjustable coilovers? turn them to the softest setting first, let them settle ..then adjust.
how far down is the lower colar of the coil over? you can adjust that further down to adjust right height.
