Saw alot of familiar cars out there, Met Rob from Strictly Performance out there. They were setting up a baseline tune and doing some mapping for a STS 427 Firehawk, also took care of my overheating problem for me. Thanks Rob

Yes 26x11.5 Et Streets on 16's and stock ride and you will be faster for sure.

And what leave it lowered that way?I still don't think that is better than stock as far as weight transfer and really getting the car to work right.And it will ride better @ stock ride as long as your shocks aren't bad from being lowered.
