Remember, prokits are designed more for performance than looks, therefor the drop isn't intended to be that dramatic.
Also, putting in new struts will probably cause your car to sit a little higher then it is now, because they'll actually be working, as opposed to letting the strut compress as on a blown strut.
So, if you want to reduce the gap, go get some springs that are designed to drop your car lower.

sportlines will drop a car lower than prokits.
if it's just the lowered look you're going for, you should check around for other spring manufacturers for your car and see what the rated drop is.
btw, you shouldn't use stock struts with lowering springs unless you like having them blown over and over again.
