Default Does lowering car hurt e/t's??

I'm thinking of doing a 1.5 drop but would like to know if it will hurt your et's or not. Thanks.

It will hurt your 60' which later hurts your ET. If you do the process correctly by getting all the right parts, you'll be fine.

Don't lower your car. You will kill your weight transfer.

You can lower your car. The difference will be marginal. It really improves the look.

i was also thinking the same thing.....i was going with 18" smoothies 2 with 555r's and the prokit. But now im not sure Now im thinking of staying with the stock suspension and going with zr1's.
DECISIONS DECISIONS.....now im back to square one and not sure what to do at all. Maybe go ahead with everything without the dr's and put the dr's on my stock wheels. But now we are back again about the suspension.??????????????????????????????????????? ???????So it wont hurt ET by much right?
