Of course it does. It can go about 3-4" lower, but it isn't about looking cool for some people.

Here's mine. When I had 18s and stretched tires.

Here's how it looks now with 19s and non stretched tires. It's much higher even though I lowered the rear more.

I like the way the 19's look, better than the 18's. Even if it isn't as low.

I removed all of mine also. I'm in Florida and it's been raining like crazy. So far I haven't had any problems. I just watch where I drive and watch the cars in front to see if a large puddle is coming up.

Mine isn't as low as some of you guys, but here she is

before




This how it sits, I raised it up a little when i got my wheels, still have plans to pull the rears and put some spacers all the way around, and i'll drop it back down some for shows but i scrape and rub tires trying to drift if its slammed

On a side note does any one make a skid plate for our cars?
I don't have one unfortunately. Just tear down a road sign and start drilling some holes

FutureSC, you dont even count dude, you're on bags, cheater lol

A lot of guys in here are dumped, but how many of you have actually invested in upgrading vital suspension components besides springs/shocks? I mean things like camber adjustible arms, roll center adjusters, traction rods, etc..


Quick Reply: Lowest of the Low?? coilovers only :)
