ZR1's help please
 

I have a 98 z28 lowered with the eibach pro line kit and i also installed all new struts but for some reason my car sits way lower than any other camaro that i have looked at with the same suspension setup that i have. So with that said my buddy has a set of original 17in zr1 wheels that i am thinking bout purchasing, the rear are 17x11 with 315/35/17 mickey thompson street slicks, and the fronts are 17x9.5 with 275/40/z17s. Does anybody know of any problems that i might could expect, any info is appreciated.....:D

i have been wanting to lower my SS..it needs it badly...i have the ZR1 rims as well with 315/35 MT drag radials...i have been holding back on buying a set of new springs from a freind. He said they will lower it 1 inch..but i have been waiting for somthing just like this to come along...hopefully some ppl with real experience in this setup chime in b/c they will be helping both of us lol

yea hopefully so cause i want to put em up there bad just want to be sure before i spread out the cash that they will fit..

They will fit. Most you have to do is BFH mod and roll the fenders. That's about it.

OP, where you at in NC?

in Kinston bout 45mins from the coast

BFH mod??..please elaborate :)

they'll fit fine with BFH (big F*ckin hammer) mod and fender rolling... I did that with eibach sportlines and they rubbed at first (stock shocks) after my KYB's no more rubbing...presuming it to be valve release and compression being more aggressive for the new shocks over the stocks...but KONI/Strano Bilstein/Strano seems to be the best mods for the 11's

u will have to preform a bumpstop mod, roll ur fenders if ur going to lower your car with 315 size tires. If not you WILL have ur tire(s) tear into your fenderwells when u hit slight bumps

It's best not to put lowering springs on your car if u wanna roll on 315's as a DD

They fit!!!!!!
 

I got the wheels put on today and they look and ride great, my car is not a daily driver so i will try and get away with not rolling the fenders posibly the bump stop mod. Drove it bout 10 miles today and no prob. seemed to be found i will post pics soon.:nod:
