4" sounds like a lot of drop for the springs. I can't image you have been driving around like that for very long. I was told that at one time some poor quality front springs were made available which lowered the front car about 1.5" whe installed, then another 1" over the next few weeks, and then they continued to sag slowly more and more thereafter until they were ripped out and thrown away. As a contrast you may want to look into the springs that Ed sells through DMC Europe. I put min in las year at this time and they still look and drive great, no added sagging.

When I looked at some photos of the underside of my car, I realized that the super-short springs are actually harmful. Since the camber of the car can't be adjusted, it makes the tires wear on the inside very badly (even after just a few thousand miles, the inside tread is almost bald), and I have some badly scraped brackets down there which have exposes me to rust damage. Not wanting anyone else to deal with these problems, I think I will simply give the springs to the local shop in exhange for some labor, and recommend that they not be put on another DeLorean.
