Sooo my wife and I will be having our baby next month and since she primarily drives the Fit these days I decided to put on stock springs to soften the ride. First off I should have looked on here before doing this because I had no idea which way the springs went in and I think thats why the car leans back now. When I say that i mean it looks like it sits a little high in the front and a little low in the back. When putting them on I know i put the paint markings that are on the front springs on the top....I dont know if thats how there supposed to go but they seemed to fit into the shock assembly better that way....and to me the rear springs looked exactly the same either way so I said what the hell and just threw them in. Anyone have any info on which way there supposed to go in...or if thats even the problem. Thnx...

 

Heres a quick crappy pic...i guess it dosn't look as bad at this angle but to me it looks like its leaning back a little....maybe im just crazy and not used to seeing it so high but when i look at other fits they look fine to me

 

Compared to the picture of my 2007 Sport below it does look a little
higher than my car, otherwise it doesn't really stick out like a monster truck or something.

looks normal

 

Congrats on the baby man. Good to hear from you lol

 

that looks normal for stock maybe u just been lowered for to long

 

yah, looks normal. just drive around and the springs will re-settle.


congrats on the new baby. they willl drive you nuts but hey, you drove your mom and pops nuts. hahaha.

 

I still have my doubts about it. If you can find another Fit try parking next to it and see if there's a visible difference.

 

That's just how they are. The fender gap at the front is large on stock springs...and I've been driving on stock springs from day 1. Normal.

Congrats on the baby.

 

Plus one more for its normal. Give the springs a few days to settle also. How long were the stockers off the car?

 

i say wait for them to settle. but wow...IMO it's awkward and tall/the wheel gap in front doesn't look all to normal...maybe its normal though?

 

congrats btw. its been awhile since you've been on here lol. what springs did you have before??

 

Fronts seem okay IMO.

If anything I'd say the wheel gap at the back seems pretty big for stock springs...but yeah, give it time and it'll hunker down a bit.

 

Looks normal to me.

 

It will settle down after a little bit of driving..... I just put after market springs on mine and the front dropped a little after some driving and after a little more so did the rear.... I got my springs second hand and they had been used for a little while.. It looks pretty normal as it is in the picture. Congratulations on the new addition to your family.
