Car looks nice but appears to be sitting high. Or is mine sagging?

Last summer I had the silentblok rear control arm and front sway bar bushings replaced; one of the first things I noticed when I picked it up was that the car sat higher, especially in back. I have the original bushings and the rubber donut part is noticeably deformed and very hard in all of them.

From the pics, this 250 does seem to be sitting a bit high. If it's got relatively new silentblok suspension bushings, an expensive job has been done and it will ride and handle better.

Just a guess from my experience.

hi guys
its my car....i am selling it because i have too many....
i do not have to sell it so if it goes it goes...if it doesn't okay...
but it is itting and does not get used....i saw it 3 weeks ago and was thinking of going to take it out for a drive today but don't have the time...
thats the story...its a great car...and you will have loads of fun and enjoyment with it...it is sorted and detailed very nicely...
i asking $70K...and i'd say its a 2....-2....
its not a concourse 100 point car....but i'd put it in the high 80's......
it has the original interior which is very nice....engine bay detaioled beautifully....paint is very nice...needs a good compound and wax....
overdrive and engine work great.....it has a new exhaust system with correct hangers.....etc....she starts real nice.....because it sits for long periods i would give it a nice tune up and she will hum even better than she does.....any questionscall me 917-836-6121

So can you address the question of why the car appears to be sitting a little to high? Could it be a slightly wrong tire size?

hi dave
i don't think its sitting high...it drives beautifully and theres no sway or problems from that stand point....the tires are 205/70VR15XWX radial Michelins....so i don't have an answer for you....its possible the koni shocks are set high if they are adjustable...??? i've owned the car for about 4 yrs and it seems fine to me...maybe the others are too low.....; )

So we are being referred to as "lowriders"?
