Default Suggestions on a Drop.

I've been looking to lower my vehical at the same time I get my new wheels and tires. I don't want to drop it to the ground, Longtubes *might* be placed in there. I just want a subtal drop to clean up the wheel gap, and one that will also take Auto-x into consideration.

This car will also be driven often, so speed bumps and inclined parking lots should be taken into consideration.

I've seen springs for 1.5"-1.8". If I could see some pictures of different drops, it would be VERY appreciated.

Koni SAs - lower perch in front, hose mod in rear - overall drop just under an inch PLUS big dividends in ride, handling, and control.

Look at the thread at the very top of this forum, just below the ANNOUNCEMENT thing.

I second that. Give Sam Strano a call.

Here's mine with Hotchkis springs and Bilstein revalves from Sam. Ended up lowering in the are of 1.25" all around. Call Sam he'll point you in the right direction.
