Well here they are 17x9.5 with new Kumho tires, could only get a shot in the garage since I'm swapping the stage II 5.3 heads to stage III LS6 heads

I sure hope your car is sitting on jackstands in those pics :p j/k

Looks good, but I'm partial to those wheels (I need to lower mine too)

slyws6

ya i'm thinking about lowering it but cant here in Asheville cause I basically live in a mountain and bottom out in a lot of places with all the dips, hills etc..

Looking good man. Did you get your Stage III heads in already, how do they look? I say you should go ahead and lower it. I have Hypercoil springs on mine and rarely have any problems bottoming out, just have to be careful over speedbumps and steep inclines, but on the other hand with your exhaust run under the axle it may be a royal pain for you.

Hey, the heads aren't being shipped out until monday. I hope they will be here by wednesday at the latest. I'm leaving out of the country on friday. I actually have plenty of clearance with the exhaust no less than I did with the 3in y-pipe setup.

Cool what are you gonna be doing with your old set of heads, are they up for sale? If you have good ground clearance i would defianetly look at doing springs/shocks the hypercoils will give you about a 1.75" drop that may be too much for what you want. Hotchkis also makes a nice set of springs from what i hear and i beleive the drop with them is a little over an inch.

Cool man, the heads have to go back to Patriot Performance but Terry said he'd sell them for $1000 with all new valvetrain in them and refurbished basically.
