New wheels and suspension
Just picked up my car from LGM today with the addition of HRE's, T1 sway bars, and bilstein shocks. It handles like it's on rails, is streetable, and looks good. Thanks Lou!

WOW!
That car looks really sharp.
Perfect ride height. Rotors fill up the wheels perfectly!

Jon C: 26 1/2" front, 26 3/4" in the rear.
Vince: Thanks!
Ryan: There were kids running around on the grass that I blurred out.
Holes02: They are the stock rotors, won't upgrade them for awhile probably...
Teddy: When you drive it last it had stock wheels and Z51 suspension. With the new wheels, T1's, and Bilstein's it handles much better. I would be interested to hear what you think about it now. I have the B&M Ripper with about 2k miles on it.

</font><blockquote><font size="1" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">quote:</font><hr /><font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">That looks awesome. I have been thinking of lowering my car. How low did you go?</font><hr /></blockquote><font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">26 1/2" front, 26 3/4" rear. The car was lower, with the stock wheels, but was raised to fit the rear tires. I was kinda tired of scraping the car just backing out of the garage anyways and it handles better than ever. <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" />
