Lowered 2 1/2" w/ LT's and ORY....

Will I even be able to get out of the garage or will I have NO clearance at all. I'll be going w/ Pacesetter LT's and ORY. Anyone w/ some suggestions or possibly in the same situation? Here is some pictures of the car as it sits now(love the stance, hope I can keep it):

Do you have sportlines? Mine sits the same way. I am buying some Stock 1LE springs ASAP. My Air Dam is only like 3.5 inches off the ground with these damn springs. It looks good but I scrape everything as it is. I don't think a prokit would be to bad.

Not sure what springs I have on currently...bought the cars used w/ them on it. I would love to swap out springs, but I'd have to pay to have it done and between labor and springs I'm lookin' at an extra $500.

You wont be able to tuck Lt's and ORY with those springs. Get some bmr springs or eibach prokits and you will be ok

i got the pro kit. I got the hooker LT and the y pipe. The only thing that pisses me off is speed bumps.

I got sportlines and LT's and the only thing that scrapes occasionally is the bolts from the clamps on the y-pipe ( my fault cause i left them facing down)...but it just take some extra patience driving and it will be fine.

it looks like a scrape but when I just checked now, that isn't there. It is a little dent from the previous owner of the headers.

I have sportlines and my car is about as low as in your picture. I have Kooks headers and y-pipe and I'm daily driving it just fine. You just have to be careful and take speedbumps and dips in the road slow and angled.
