lowered my car or whatever

I like to think it might take some considerable skill or at least extreme caution to drive a car like that. I'm sure there are several performance as well as aesthetic factors and I admire the overall effect, but I wouldn't trust myself driving one like that. Too paranoid about my own driving habits, I might misjudge some terrain and f*** s*** up under there. Love the aqua wheels more than anything about that hot mama.

Oilpan is possible to damage but since the front crossmember sits lower than the oilpan it hits first.

It takes a bit of getting use to to drive a car that low, only took me a few days when I dropped mine that low. Just gotta make sure you don't get high centered going into parking lots and you should be fine. Exhaust might scrape if the road is a bit bumpy but that doesn't really matter, its easy to weld a piece of steel where it hits.

thanks everyone for the positive comments
I'm running powered by max coilovers, maxed in the rear with all collars (soon to be removed so I can tuck rim) and the fronts still have a ton of room to go lower.
When I first lowered it this much the tire was sitting on the fender well and pretty much ruined the tire but I've taken an angle grinder to it since and I'm hoping this will fix my problem!
In these pictures I'm running 17x9.5 +15 (25mm spacer) & a 215/45 which are the wheels off my ruckus trailer cause I blew up my old rear tires on the 18s. Just ordered a set of 215/35s so I'm hoping this will also help the fender well rubbing.

Do you have any pics of the front wheel well with the wheel off so I can see whats going on up there?

Sad news at this height its really not drivalbe, atleast on the 17s it isn't. Once my new tires get here I'm going to figure out my final height
