Default Layin low on Labor Day

Got bored on Labor day so I decided to go 1 1/2 inches lower on my baby. Sorry about the crappy picture. Taken with my Crackberry!!!!

Im on JIC coilovers. I thought being that low it was going to be a horrible ride but its still really comfortable. That's my everyday driving height and I can make U-turns and drive on all of Dallas highways. I just have to be careful when I pull up driveways.

Yup its the ol' classic Iforged Aeros. I have no rubbing issues. I took it out of town the next day I lowered it and it did great. Of course I had to shave my quarters and pull my front fenders a lil bit but that was all. I will say that I will catch my fenders if I don't be careful pulling up a driveway. I caught my fender the first day but now I know how to get up and down without catching it.

I have JICs as well. How much thread do you have left if you wanted to lower it even more? I don't have much left and its about 1/2" higher then yours right now.
