2003 RSX, base model
I had lowering springs on this car, but kept scraping everywhere. So I purchased a set of OEM struts/springs from a friends 2005 RSX type-s and put them in (the whole assemblies, front and rear)
Now the car looks super-jacked up in the rear. What do you guys think?
This is my daughters car, who is learning to drive, so a higher ride height is a good thing, but this is rediculous.

No but it does look the the front to back wheel gap looks off on the right front wheel. Stock height is very high on these cars.

If it's the same on both sides, just get an alignment and send it. These cars are monster trucks before lowering haha.

I think Acura went for the Off-roading spec when they designed the suspension on these cars lol

Jokes aside... for what your daughter is going to use the car for this height is fine.

This picture was taken just after an alignment. Guess we will just send it!

Safe height OEM for your daughter.

Echoing the above - the OEM height is nonsensical and yes that looks normal for OEM. The A-Spec suspension (1" drop) is more reasonable, and even the A-spec is fairly conservative height wise.

Dude that frt. wheel spacing slapped me right off! Something ain't right about that? Tuff call do to shading, but it almost looks like a slight paint veriance from fender forward, yet there's a good line coming off the fender to the front bumper cover. I'd be more worried about that?
