I dont know if these springs are designed to compensate for the driver's weight, but with me out of the car, the driver's side is roughly .125 higher front and rear...

also, to be fair, the roads around here are pretty damn nice and I rarely venture beyond the city limits - I know literally every dip and high spot that may rub my exhaust so I avoid those areas and plan my routes accordingly. I dont know if I mentioned in this thread but my factory y-pipe and cat hangs unusually low (about 2in off the ground) and there's a solid 4in of room for them to tuck up higher so I'm thinking longtubes or even some shorties will actually give me 2-3in of ground clearance. Besides the cat, the lowest point on the car is the airdam. Factory bumpstops are still on the rear and with the JasonWW upper mount mod, the subframes will drag long before the front shocks bottom out.

My pride and joy... Strano springs, SLP Bilsteins, hose mod. It has settled a little since those pics were taken, the front looks a touch lower now.

That is such a beautiful color! It matches the sky in the background. Your bird is sweet with the wheel/color combo.

Not sure if I posed in here or not. Forgot to look for the arrow.

Anyway. Here's mine. 18" wheels and Eibach/Bilstien.. (For now.. want Strano/KoniSA.)

I stay riding high

It is a bit lowered stock w/ SLP springs compared to stock Z28s though.

^ You wouldn't do HellaFlush on an F-body anyway. -Wouldn't look right on these. It's a euro status symbol. Expensive to achieve with the right wheels and bagging.

Heres mine on Koni's and stranos with the rear isolators in, I spose I could stand to do the heater hose mod (I did already but though it was too low) but I'd prefer the extra room for suspension travel.
