My "stance". Can't really be any lower, I prefer to keep my headers intact.

Here's my set up

Koni 4/4's, BMR springs, and 18x9.5/18x10.5 C5 DD with 275/35 up front and 315/30 Toyo R888s out back. Might do the heater hose mod on the back to get it down just a tad more.

Thanks bud, I believe the LG springs are advertised at 1.5" lower. Its perfect IMO, not too low but just enough to give it an aggressive stance.

got things about where I want them now as far as the stance goes, now that I've swapped the rear springs. I may add small spacers in the
rear, thinking another 5mm should do the job.. of course hub-centric and all that jazz

Front: 18x8.5, 245/40. Lowered on BMR springs. Custom 27mm adapters
Rear: 18x10.5, 295/35. Lowered on Eibach Sportlines, with the hose mod done. Custom 15mm adapters

adapters from www.motorsport-tech.com, I'll be getting the spacers there too, if/when I decide to

fenders are rolled

not the best pic of my car, but you can see where the wheels sit compared to the body

Hopefully the front wheel gap will get slightly smaller once the LS goes in.

195/65 265/60

Crimson_bird:

I assume your wheel wells are rolled in the rear? Do you have any rubbing, front or rear, with it so flush?

I don't have any pictures to add, but Crimson; I've followed your car closely since I joined this site way back when.

Your car is amazing. I still wish I had a F-Body at times when I see your car lol.
