take it for a quick spin and see if the spring settles back. springs take
at least a few weeks to settle in completely (usually 500miles or so).

i have been driving it and it is not comming down. i had alot of camber but i put the camber kit on i would think less camber would fill up the gap more.

how many fingers gap did you have before the drop on the 20's? how much did you cut off when you did the springmount mod?

less camber and/or spacers will shrink the gap and make the rear appear to be lower

check the picture share as well as do a search in the marketplace for ppl selling wheels the same size as yours. chances are they will have pix showing how flush they are with the fenders.

also, with a +29 offset you should be able to get away with a 10-15mm spacer in the rear as long as you roll your fenders

yeah, not too many pix of guys fingering their fender gap lol

anyway, i think spacers would help you out a lot visually. my car is on zH-techs and it looks a lot lower than it is because of the rear spacers (15mm on 10.0" rims with 275 tires):
