No, no lol

I just measured my stock ride height and subtracted 2" to give people a ball park of where the final ride height will be with OEM tires and rims

 

oh ic, thanks. The gap is pretty good, perfect to me. Just don't know if my fab lip will scrape anything or not :S

 

Look out for Parking Blocks. I hit them every once in a while with the stock lip.

 

^^^ yeah, definitly, be nice if we had a front view camera, lol

any problems with speed bumps?

 

Did you guys notice any major camber problems after the drop? 2" is quite alot.

 

I havn't noticed. I'm going to check it when I get new tires.
The car is quick to turn, which would tell me the camber is in a bit. But no noticable tire wear, and it doesn't pull at all.

 

Did you do an alignment after your drop?

All we can do is a toe adjustment in the front. That puts the car around -1.5 camber but that is just within factory spec. I got this week for mine.

 

Ididn't do the alignment yet. I wanted the car to settle.

 

the shop where i'll be taking it to said to do alignment 3 weeks after the spring install, is that sound about right?

 

You may want to wait a bit longer. I think it took about 2 months for my springs to really settle in. but I only drive about 15 miles a day.
The drop isn't to extreme so it's not like you are going to were out parts at an extreme rate if it's out for a few extra days.

 

guess what arrived today?

 

Sweet, hurry up and show us what its like dropped

I plan on ordering mine soon- I even got a place ready to install it for me, as soon as I get my wheels and tires ordered too, lets hope all the peices fall into place :P

 

hey mikez where you gettin it installed in nj? those look great lexboi250. let me know how it feels comfort wise and post some pics too we want to see. im waiting to pay off some medical bills before I can purchase any spring. also i'm kind of worried about the drop in my situation cuz where i work they dont have speed bumps but they have speed humps like a camel's hump. they are all over the town where i work.

 

Hey Evil Teo check ya PM

Hey Big *****, do you ever have a full car? I went out and measured my stock ride height with 2 adults in the back seat, and repeated again with 2 in the front, and the ride height is exactly 2" as measured, or according to tire calculator's tire size and not my measured one, the ride height difference under a fully loaded car is about 1.25~1.5"

do you rub with your new rim and tire setup? I wanna go 18x8.5 +40 offset and use 255/35 tires all around and I'm wondering if that will rub

 

I've had four people and a trunk load with no rubbing issues at all.
