Default Function Form Type 2

Today i installed these function form type 2 coilovers and i was pretty disappointed because i thought the rear would go alot lower than it can.
I am stuck with 2 finger gap while the front has alot of room to go lower. I did not mess with the preload or anything and ive seen post where people can slam their s2ks on these coilovers not that im trying to slam it.

Does anyone have these? I'm on stock ap1 rims so maybe thats the cause?

Thanks!

you should be able to adjust the bottom collar and adjust the whole body lower. which will lower your car!

Did you pre-load the suspension before you tightened everything down? Put a jack under each hub and jack it up till the car starts to lift off the jack stands, then tighten all bolts.

Yes, the coilovers were pre loaded i think its common that people cannot go low in the rear with these coilovers. I think ima need to get extended top hats to go lower..
