Any Suspension Kits That don't Lower the Car??

This might be a stupid question but I was wondering if anyone makes a suspension kit that doesn't lower the car?

I haven't tracked the car yet, but I mainly use it as a daily driver. I really don't want to lower it more then it is now, but would like the benefits of a better kit.

On my KW Clubsport, you can raise the perch to max and will get to stock ride height or may be even higher.

Thanks,

I did a suspension on my 135, and I loved the look, the way it handled, and I didn't even mind the height(about .5 - .75 drop) but as a DD it was always a pain parking or going up ramps. I really don't want the hassle this time around.

The KW v3s at max height are very close to stock height, and ride better (more forgiving) if you adjust them accordingly. AND you can corner-balance the car if you wish. A bit pricy but high quality product. IDK about the max height H&R coilover sets.

Dinan springs dont lower the car but maybe .25" and they supposedly ride and handle great.

^ Yep, I was about to suggest Dinan, I hear they are a very minimal lowering height (something like either 0 or .25") but they offer an improvement in ride handling. Pair those up with some Bilstein HD's or something and you'll be good to go!
