That's not lowered, that's f'n SLAMMED.  lol.  Looks bad ass and handles great too I bet.:bowdown:


Slammed?!? Hell, I thought maybe he forgot to reinstall the springs! :eek:

Looks great though!

uh....firm...yeah, thats it ;)
my spring rates are far from what most would consider for a street car, but coupled with high quality dampers the ride is very tolerable IMO.



Well, the IRS on the rear helps with ride quality, as do the coil-overs on the front.

Mine is currently lowered with FMS C-Kit springs on the front (with maybe a 1/8" spacer on top of the upper isolator) and SN-95 convert springs in the back with the rearward mounting point of the RLCA dropped 3/4".
