raised a minor minor bit...............
have gone to a larger size tire........stock on the 5K was 185 X 70 X 14, I have gone to a 195 X 70 X 14 size tire. This has raised my car about an inch over stock, filled up the fender wells with more tire, which looks better. This also puts a little larger tire "foot print" on the pavement, so it handles and rides a little better. The larger tire also softens the ride just a tad, which I like, because I went to KYB struts at all corners. These struts are substantially stiffer then stock struts, (at a reasonable price) added extra driving control, but also added ride harshness.
I am not aware of anyone having installed coil springs that are a little longer to raise the ride, but if used, would really increase ride harshness.
