YOu bought those before even learning how to drive the car yet? You aren't supposed to get springs just to get rid of wheel gap. They should be used for performance reasons once you've learned to drive the car to its fullest. Putting on springs or coilovers before even racing the thing is just wrong...

Not everyone uses their car for just racing. Alot dont even race them. He will just have to learn on the new springs, not that big of a deal.
