Before and after 2" drop

t looks good, have you tried it out yet?. I always wondered how far up the front wheel will travel when in hard compression with the stock spring rate

yes.....I had to do some modifications to the inner fender cause it did rub. I also think I might put a lower profile tire on the front.....not sure yet.

You always want to do an alignment when changing a major part like that. The toe is the easiest to set, simply loosen the clamps on the tie rods and twist each side until it measures proper. Caster/camber is a little more involved, set by the washers between the frame and the upper control arm shaft:

The interesting thing is yours looks about the same height as mine does with 2" Belltech spindles and 1" Hotchkis springs.

Tires on mine are 225/50/16, just under 25".

That looks nice, what size tires and wheels are you running? wheel specs also please.

I am surprised how much I like those GNX vents on there.

Your car looks really good and Im loving the new stance. Notice any difference in handling?

Just the thread I needed... Nice ride man, especially with the new stance.

Here is a recent picture. I have changed the profile on the fronts. As it sits.....255/40/18X8 rears with 4.5" BS and 245/40/17X7 fronts with 4" BS

Car looks amazing, those wheels and stance are perfect! Ever catch any static for the window tint?

No Rok_OEM I haven't any problems with the tint. I have had cops follow me but never been pulled over. Tint really isn't a problem where I'm from unless you give them a reason to pull you over.

Me? They're stock Iroc 16x8 wheels - 4 fronts... rears are different offset, or maybe it's the other way around. The car's in MI so I can't just pop on over & check. Tires are supposedly 225/50/16 from what I understand, but when they get replaced they're going to be 245/50/16... stock size for ZQ8 S10 wheels, and I believe the Irocs too.
