Oooof I cringe at the thought of a higher GT stance, since I think they look better lower than stock, but I digress: The 4G7V-5560-AA7 model in your pic is the same as mine below; sorry, I don't have any info on raising one.

Depending on where the drive way has the issue , Have you investigated the heavy rubber wedges that can be purchased to “fill in “ between pavement and curb to allow for a smoother “transition?
Several homes in my subdivision use them.

Add a lift kit? I think a kit was for sale not too long ago too.

KW HLS Adjustable Suspension
Anyone within the forum have experience installing or using the KW HLS system for both front and back? My new driveway has a steep drop from the road and the first time I bumped the bottom and have since laid out a piece of carpet to get up/down the drive. Hoping the 24-30mm of travel will allow...

The shock/spring in the pic is stock but it has the adjustable aftermarket perch installed.It looks like from the pic it can be adjusted up at least 3/4 of an inch.I would guess the car has been lowered from stock already since usually thats the reason the adjustable perches were installed.

Yes. These “bridjit curb ramps “ are what I referred to earlier and what my neighbors us.

Thanks for all the input. The issue with my driveway is not at the curb, it's at a break over in the driveway because I'm on a hillside lot and the street is approximately 20' higher than where my garage is located.
Here is a better picture of the shock perch. Someone mentioned that the spring is original to the car and perhaps the shock but the perch had been updated to be adjustable. Anyone recognize the brand? I don't have the wrenches to adjust and tried two different generic sets of coilover adjustment wrenches and cannot find a set with a round peg on the end for these perches.
For those with a recommendation to install a set of Scott Ahlmans shocks, I'm on the list that's 20 deep, likely mid year 24'.

Will this work? https://www.stage3motorsports.com/803-00-732-fox-25-coilover-spanner-wrench.html
Also, you could just grind down the square peg of a less expensive wrench until it fits in the round hole of the adjuster ring. Lube the bottom of the spring where it contacts the adjuster ring.
