If it works for you,,, the speed bumps in my neighborhood would chew ya up and spit ya out. Just spent $300+ repairing my C6's front underside, no violent incidents just damage over about two years.

PS, no fat hotties or S-I-Ls in the back seat

YEP, f'n sick. NOT PRACTICAL... BUT SICK!

And we can assume it drives like ****? What did you do to it?

Coilovers?

Does it drive like a leaning go-gart?





I wonder why they installed speed bumps...

Stepside

Because, it prevented the sister-n-laws from riding in the 'back seat'

So have you actually measured the side skirts on the car to see if it is level? I am curious what the distance from the ground is right behind the front wheel and right in front of the rear wheel(to the side skirts).

The measurement that I have seen previously is from the top of the wheel wells which really isn't telling you if the car is level.

It just looks like it is sitting lower in the rear to me.

I had Ground Control all around but the rear was not low enough. So I cut 1 ½ coil off the stock rears and installed those again. I left GC on the front. Rear is pretty bumpy. But man does it turn heads everywhere I go. That and I’m running straight pipes with an X-pipe, so that lets them know I’m coming. Lol…the rear is lower. Fender to floor is 25 ½ in the front and 25 in the rear. I cannot go any lower in the front. Don’t wana leave my bumper on some dip. I might not leave it this low cuz I have a lil one on the way. Don’t wana give him shaken baby syndrome.

tony tone

06 6.0 GTO

Have fun with the slightest of dips in the road!
haha jk

Looks great!

ferny

yes sir! i wanted black 20's. but i might be going with an aluminum rim, like yours. love that look. very classy. very expensive too. i got a call from stasse forged rims talking about sponsoring me but they dont even have a website .......so im not sure if i want to go that route. he quoted me 3400 for 20's. just rims. three piece. what do you think?

tony tone

i would need to see them. that's a very good price to be honest, but if they look like *** then it means nothing, lol.

i have a few connections at some good places. PM me if you want some help. I can help make your **** look as aggressive as possible.

edit: found some of their pics




not bad at all... that carbon fiber 5 spoke would like ridiculous on your car, tucking so eloquently. you can go 20x8.5 and 20x10.5 with a 285/25 in the rear, 245/30 in the front. i'd roll your fenders though, but if you don't want to you can go x10 with a 275.

Just curious, can you even get that thing on an alignment rack? I know theres one shop by me that is just ground level and the tech works in a pit...pricey though.

Small, gated community of about 160 homes with lots of kids. I moved there in 2000 and there were none. I got my Caddy in 2004 and the bumps were put in shortly thereafter. These are big/high, my mom gets dizzy when she is in my car. The HOA Prez is not a fan of either one of my cars, and I am not allowed to kick his **** as he is an octogenarian. On the day I move out, I am going to roast both car's tires in front of his house!

tony tone

i did. although, there was about 15 feet of 2x4s and plywood laid out in front of it so i could make it up, so much that the rear end of my car was sticking out of the shop when starting to go up the ramp.

ferny

yep! thats them! CF would be killer on a platinum V. i just dont know if i should do that with a lil one on the way. i got a call from stasse yesterday. i really want the wheels. they look good quality to me. you had to have broke alot of bread for your set up

tony tone

i think i've mentioned once or twice what i've put in to it in just suspension and wheels/tires, but the outcome is always worth it. the only negative thing that's been said about my car was that some think it's too low (lol @ this thread), but that's what gives it the stance that it has on these wheels while still retaining driveability.

what sizing are they suggesting for your car? what kind of tires? that CF would look so sick with the color of your car.

ferny

they are suggesting 20's. they said i can take care of the tires. so i would imagine that i would have to go with the smallest tire available. or raise it up just a tad.

can anybody photoshop those CF rims on my ride and convince me to buy them lol

CF! do it!

tony tone

oh i'm certain 20s, but what widths/offsets? they should know the measurements of every car out there to properly size them for you and the stance you're looking for, even if you have to roll in some fenders.

as far as tires, you can do the following and be okay

Front: 245/30/20
Rear: 285/25/20

i would suggest Nittos.
