I haven't had any problems with my 175's. Do you have the stock springs,
and shocks at the front of your car? I use to have the stock setup until
this year when I put on a set of Koni's, uprated springs and urathane
sway bar bushings.
That lowered the front of the car a bit and the Spit now does not point
upward and looks level from a distance. The only problems with the new
set up is I now scrape my muffler clamp onto speed bumps at stop signs
and the tires squeal when I make fast turns. The squealing of the tires
still persist even after a 4 wheel alignment (or maybe I'm just driving
faster knowing I have at set on Koni's in the front ;). The clamp part
can be fix by pointing the thread end of the clamp to the side instead of
down.
