How to lower the front of your car for free.
Cheap trick, doesnt cost anything, dont need any parts, you can do this with stock or aftermarket struts/springs without sacrificing ride quality. Id say you can lower it a good inch or so, maybe more. Heres what you do:

The strut is basically just bolted to the strut fork. So if you loosen the bolt on the top of the strut fork, move the strut fork up a bit higher onto the strut, then tighten the bolt back down very well. Service manual says it should be torqued to 75ftlbs. You basically just lowered your car. You can only lower it so much as the strut starts to get thicker at a certain point, but if you can jack up your car and take your wheel of, you can do this.
If you do have stock struts, they may have to chisel off the little block on the back of the strut that marks where the stock height is. Just takes a hammer, chisel or screw driver, and a few taps.
I noticed my passener front was tucking my front wheel while my driver had a two finger gap between the tire. Turned out that my strut fork had moved up on my strut and caused it to be lower. Just moved the fork back down to the bottum of the strut, tightened the strut fork bolt and now have the same two finger gap on both sides.
Thanks to John for giving me the idea as I was rubbing my front tires and needed to fix it haha!
