Would like to start a thread with photos of lowered Cutlasses. I'd like to know how much drop, what springs/shocks you are using, and tire size to see what fits. I'm trying to get an idea if I wanna go 1 or 2 inch drop. Thanks all!
moose said:If you decide to drop yours an inch, I have a full set of used Belltech shocks that lower the vehicle 1" by themselves. They've got low miles on them, about six months worth of driving. I don't have any pictures of my car with them installed, but I now have about a 2" drop and will get some pictures and product details later today.

If you are trying to sell those please change the description so that it does not say the shocks will lower your car. i think this is a great thread though, we should have one for each G body so people can see how they look lowered. Mine has stock sagging springs and I love the way it sits, but is a regal so I will not post a pic in your thread.
moose said:I've got the steering wheel out and am in the process of filling in all the cracks so I couldn't pull it out for a good overall shot. I'm using SPC springs and Bilstien shocks all around. Tire size is 235/60R15 front and back. I had to put a 1/4" spacer on the front to keep the tire from rubbing on the frame during tight turns. As bad as the pictures are I hope this helps some.
moose said:Mr.Evil, I do not know the backspacing. They're old Cragars that came with a Monte I bought years ago. They fit the Monte so I threw em on the Cutlass without much thought. Just rubbing issues, never bottomed out. Since I put on the Bilstiens I can now fit my whole fist in between the tire and wheel well. My tire height is 26.1" and Mark at SC&C said he doesn't recomend anything over 27" with his suspension setups.
