Nice, I thought the tires looked a little tall. What are you dropped on?

245/40 in the rear and drop it a bit more in the rear to get rid of that rake and you'll be golden

Thanks,

9k I dropped it on a fresh set of D2 sport full bodies. The rear rides way too soft for the car, which I cant stand! and the rear is as low as it can go without unloading the spring from the perch :/... not very pleased with these coilovers so far.

And so I took her to Dallas today, a good 400mile round trip, the springs settled about a 1/4 inch up front and a 1/2 inche in the rear.

As for the tires im running what ever my hookup finds me, im just gonna burn em off at Mineral Wells anyways. :P


I have a question though, when I hit bumps somthing bottoms out in the rear but its not the car on the ground its not that low, it makes a clunk sound like the suspension is limited, are there any hidden bump stops I should be aware of?


Edit: the car doesnt have any rake, this is the car setting on a flat surface...

^ The stance is perfect IMO. I'm thinking removing the stock spoiler and maybe adding a front/ maybe rear lip would really set it off.

EDIT: or maybe no trunk lip at all? Nice anyways...
