Default will my car get any lower??

What up i just got my neuspeed race springs installed like 3 wheels ago..i bought them used off my buddy who had them for a year or two on hes ride! my question is will my car get any lower? i am on stock struts. ppl tell me that they will settle and drop a little more then it is? but the springs are used and already broken in?!?! well my struts like settle in and get lower?

thanks for the help

I doubt that your hatch is any heavier than your buddies car. If it was I'd say they might settle and drop a minor amount more but you're right in saying they're already broken in.

whats wrong with a 1 finger gap? i think thats a really clean ride height. especially if you have bad roads

He never complained about the gap, he simply asked if it would sink any lower.

The springs have probably done all the settling they're going to at this point.
