I would like to lower my car. i am going to retain my 15 inch wheels... and currently have 225-50-15 all the way around. i am getting suspension soon... and would like to lower it along with stiffening it up
how low should i go? or should i say, how long can i go i dont want a 'lowrider' just something that looks extreamly well, and will ride and handle alot better too 1 inch? 1.5 inch? is 2 inches pushing it? will i get fender/tire rub? i know someone here has lowerd their FC. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683358.gif |
I have the Eibach pro kit with KYB AGX shocks. Look at my fc pics I just posted. I'm not sure how much it lowered if any, because my stock springs were probably sagging.
|
yeah, I think I got maybe a 1/2 inch drop with that set up. It looks like it could use another inch yet.
|
yeah the 'Maroon' FC right? man. my suspension is so messed up
If i turn a corner too hard.. the rear end acctually bounces like a basketball and turning on a corner with bumps involved (road bumps) forget about it my rear end sounds and feels like it's going to fall off the car. |
Mine was the same way. Shocks completely blow out. Its downright dangerous. Get a good spring/shock combo and it should fix your problems. Springs alone will only make it worse.
|
how yours handle with the new shocks ihor? mine is i think 22" in the front and 24" in the rear from the ground to the top of the wheel well, much lower and you have to worry about scraping stuff. i just posted pics too so you can get a feel for it, its also on 15"'s

Werd. My GXL is lowered close to 1.75 all the way around right now...maybe a little more then that in the rear. Its at -1.5 camber front, -1.75 rear. With apex springs, GR2 struts, and right now BBS 15s. I had 18's before and there was NO fender gap..looked great. Now I have a little gap inthe back, but not much in the front. Here is a new pic. I will find an older one with 18s.
