They go low enough:



Can drop it 1 more inch If I need, but then when my doors open they will will hit the curb I am using bump stops and have not had to worry about the harness in the fender. I have less than 3in clearance between my lip and the pavement.

 

^ that's as perfect a drop as I've seen.

 

I have Stance on my SC300 and I love them. The car doesn't bounce over bumps. And it's not stiff. Everyone who gets in. Is surprised how good it rides being that low. I had HKS hiper max's on my 240 and that sucker was stiff!!

 

Yea they do go low enough, but you know how it is on here. If your car is not low enough that your taillights are dragging on the floor, then it's not uber-cool.

 

When you set this up what kind of pre-load did you put on the springs. Your ride looks great. Not sure if I want to go that low. I can raise it up if I want correct?

 

If you ever plan on going out on the track, DON'T buy Megan's. They suck.

 

not going on the track, but I am really sold on these Gixxer-Drews. I just purchased some extra top hats so I can assemble these on a bench and have them ready to go. I have to change out 4 control arms also. SO gonna be fun to see how it rides after such extreme repairs.

 

To each his own. I just don't really dig the lowering. Sure there is a certain amount of lowering that looks good with some of these body kits. But I am not wanting to buy a suspension setup just soo I can go low. Andrew (AKA Gixxer_Drew) runs or ran his ride at stock height because on the forums he said handling a ride quality suffer asa you go lower. These seem right up my alley.

 

Well I placed my order for all of the components for the gixxer drew setup. I'll keep everyone in the loop when I install.

 

A small amount of lowering proportional to the increase in spring rate will benefit handling, but just not a large amount like most people on here are going for.

 

I think for most it is about the looks. Not the handling.

 

ultimate luxury toms

 

Yes you can ride WAY HIGHER than stock. I wish I had pics of it set at max height right after install.

My spring rates:
600 front
450 rear

Rides pretty stiff, little harsher than stock C5 Z06 suspension. I have to be careful over speed bumps, but let's me go around corners stupid fast. Very neutral with 245/40-18 all the way around. Understeers with staggered tires.

Bumpstops are still in great condition after 2 years of riding that low.

 

1.5" less than stock is perfect for the stock suspension. Any lower and you really need some IKEA goodies.

Basically if you can't get your camber in spec, you are probably too low for optimal handling.

 

Yes. All of my friends try to get me to go lower, but I would rather have fun driving.
