Sure it looks good but damn I bottom out everywhere. I can't even have fun in the turns going a little hard without some god awful noise. Am I just getting old?

 

I am sure I will get flamed for this but in my opinion anything more than 2" is asking for trouble or lots of $$$$ in upgrades to cure the issues, rattles, pops, tearing, camber and other issues. I plan to drop mine with Z springs and eventually redo the suspension and go down to 1.5" - 1.75". I have a baby boi and wifey to think about as well as other family members so I want to have a comfortable and noise free ride. I would look into coil overs and just increase the height to a good mix where you still have some gap and meaty tires to help dampen the road and all the noise. Every person should decide what is best for there own lifestyle and coil overs are a good answer to flexibility or a spring/shock setup that drops you less than 2".

 

i feel you brotha. im 21 and i came to the same conclusion .

 

+1...

sadly

 

What kind of coils do you have again Steve? What is your dampening set at? At your ride height you shouldn't be bottoming out.

 

I know how you feel. I'm trying to (slowly) get mine set-up so it looks how I want while still having fun in the corners without rubbing. The car bug bites hard and sometimes it's hard to go back. I've been telling myself for years that I just want a mostly stock car, just some nice wheels and maybe a slight drop...Thats yet to happen

 

Looks or performance... Pick one it's always a tradeoff.

 

I am in the same boat. I am no longer going to be low. Well actually this weekend it will be slammed but after that nope. Man its been fun the past few days taking corners faster than I can when slammed.

 

Add some sway bars Steve. I'm with you on not liking the rubbing/scrapping. I don't like and yes you are getting old lol

 

Your crazy lol i just went more low

i have my BC coils set to the stiffest they can go so that helps

 

Dang... This is first time om this forum I have heard of people complaining being too low. Most people on here love their slammed cars. This thread is making me think twice about keeping my springs and not getting coils like I intended too soon.

Seems it's more headache than it's worth..hmmm

 

Damm I'm looking to get coils and go low...but with my two lil ones in the rear on z stechs..they help me look slammed in the rear...I agree on the scraping the bumper part..why couldn't the kurookie be polygon!!

 

* poly....Dang auto text

 

You gotta pay to play...lol.

 

F&F 2's with front full stiff and rear are maybe 3/4. Its mostly the motordyne y back that hits. I need to go full stiff in rear and raise the exhaust. We have bad roads in RI because we salt our roads in the winter. Bottoming out is mainl when I corner hard.

I have stillen sways now and I love them. Yea I need to face the facts I'm not a young whipper snapper anymore.
