I have a stock 1997 GT suspension. I want to close the wheel and fender gap but i do not know if either I'll just purchase larger wheels or keep the stock wheels and use lowering springs. I read that the GT also comes in sports suspension package and some also have sealed struts. I don't know what kind of stock suspension I have. Is there any way I can find out what my set-up is, without removing, because I might not be able to put them back together again and I do not want to spend for the wrong part. Any advice for a noob I appreciate it. Thanks!

... or go for coilovers. Lowering springs are not the best for stock shocks.
