The spring set with the extra hard ones (4 pairs) looked exactly the same as the ones on the car in height and shape when comparing the yellow colored ones to the box supplied white ones with yellow tab. Maybe there is an all-white set that does not include the extra-stiff spring, which are basically the same? I'm about 2mm too high (7mm or so lowest I can go.) Might be the tires.
When I ran a TT-01 I had the same problem with ride height. Never did manage to get it down to 5mm.
