1LE WS6, so it already had stiffer 1LE springs and koni double adjustable shocks...

But wanted lower so got them stranos installed today along with UMI panhard with dual roto-joints (all bought from STrano). Love the new look, especially with the 315 DR's out back.
Had shop also put in new bung so wideband wouldn't get impacted with the new low ride height.
New alignment, set camber to -1.2. What do you guys set it to for aggressive street?

Why does drivers side look to be a little higher than passenger side? Isolators still in the rear shocks.

since the install yesterday, and parked in my level garage, it seems to have settled.
I just measured drivers side is actually lower than passenger side. 26.75 " vs 27.
So all good.

Thanks and Happy Thanksgiving! The wheels are 17x9.5" Z06 in 54mm off-set for F-bodies in painted aluminum from OEWheelsLLC. They're wrapped with 275/40ZR17 BFG KDWs. I wanted to stick with a OEM-like wheel/tire combo, so I just bumped up to what is on the '02 SS.

Does your exhaust dump before the rear axle, or do you have rear exit turndowns tucked up out of site??

A customer sent me these today showing off the springs on his Firehawk and WS6. He liked them so much the got a set for the other car. But he's on a Mac so was having trouble posting and asked me to do it. The quote was "I'd love to see my cars in a thread".
