Hey guys, recently switched coilovers and went with Megan Racing Street Series and was messing with the height. I got new tires (225/40/19) all around and it seems to me like the back is still too high? I asked the shop to make it lower but they said that the backs were maxed out already??? i...

I'm in the market for a new car, and pretty sure I've decided on an Optima. An EX specifically, since it has the features I would want on it. I found a 2011 EX Turbo with 60k miles on it at a dealer, for a hair under $13k. This seems to be well under the market price, much less than I'm seeing...
