Just because there are threads showing doesnt mean that there is anymore adjustment. If the shock body is bottomed out in the cup, that is the lowest it'll go. We have the same coilovers on our car:



This is max adjustment for the rear on our set.

OP, that's all we got out of our car too (same wheels too), but we had a taller sidewall tire, which helped a bit with the gap. We never bothered with adding more preload, as I dont think it would have had the effect we wanted. Yours honestly looks a little bit higher, but it could just be the different tires. It's entirely possible that the shock bodies are longer than they should be, but obviously I'm not positive. But it is a reasonable explanation for why it would be higher than others when maxed out.
