I wanna lower my car a little, but not so much that it messes with my 11 inch back tires lol Wanna know what kind of springs I should get. I wanna notice that its low but as I said not to interfere with my back tires

lower perch in front, heater hose mod in rear

should drop the whole thing 1/2" or so


i had to clearance the inner fender with my ZR1s/315s when i put my BMR 1.25" springs on.

If you do the heater hose mod do you need an adjustable PHB? or is the amount lowered not enough to need it?

19BLACKBIRD99

So with those lowering springs, your tires still fit?

on my 98 i had sportlines with zr1s with 11 wide in the rear with no issues.

dropped car a good amount

how much are you trying to go?

I'm not trying to be a low rider, but I would like to try to fill the gaps in the fender wells and try to make the rims "stick out more as of appearance" lol

Get some slp springs they drop the car 1/2 to 3/4 inch, and the ride is nice.

real easy man. the rears are the easiest for the front you will need a strut compressor to get the struts removed from the stock shock/spring.

theres a few videos here on ls1tech where they show you how to do it

do you have shocks capable of handling the increased spring rates? are you willing to buy a panhard bar to recenter the rear, relocation brackets to correct geometry if necessary, and pay for an alignment?

just some other things to consider, since springs effect more than appearance

i'd never done spring/shocks in my life.

took me about 6hrs including over an hour to remove one nut on top of one of the front units. also had to go back and redo one of the fronts due to a forgotten washer.

really isn't hard...just a bit time consuming

haha, I dunno I will try and do it fast like I always do, but I wanna take my time also, because suspension isn't nothing that need to be fucked up.
