I have lg gt2 coilovers, the rears I can lower as much as possible no problem, but the fronts....not so much...so I have the lower mount screwed up into the shock at its max, it was still to high for my liking, so I messed with the spring pre load and lowered as much as possible...got a little lower but I wish they could go another quarter inch....so is this ok the way it is currently set up??
Oh and I'm on 17s all around, hence why I can't seem to clear the wheel gap
Any input is greatly appreciated as this is my first time with coilovers on any car
Did you contact Anthony at LG as ask if you can obtain different springs? Easy to install on your coil-overs. Once you get to the desired ride height, see if you can connect with someone that has four tire scales to balance the car. Looking at your present dilemma, the only adjustments would be possible with the rear coil overs. Once you get that balance done, then get a good alignment.
Enjoy the fun.

I'm familiar with "coil-overs", but on oval track cars, not Corvettes. But let me throw this out there, just for grins....
Looking at the picture you posted, and the one that "Ray" posted, see where Ray's springs are? (I see that they are rears) They're at the bottom of the shock assembly, whereas yours appears to be at the top. Is there any possibility that you could have them in "upside down, and something on the shock is hitting something on the car, therefore not allowing the shock to seat properly on the top?
I might be 100% incorrect, but as I said, I'm just throwing that out there.
