Adjust HIDs For Lowered Cars?
Hey guys,
One night when I was driving, I felt like I couldn't see too far in front of me. That got me thinking if I needed to change bulbs for my 2003 G35C. But then I want to save cash so I thought about this:
In stock ride height, your lights will be pointing a certain direction, say a slight angle downwards. But if you lower it about an inch to an inch and a half, that'll move your beam's direction even more downwards. Could that a be a possibility why I can't see as far now? I have Tein Type CS kit. Any thoughts?

it your car was lowered evenly, then the angle the headlights makes is the same relative to the ground, so you will only lose as much visibility as the amount you lowere, which is usually less than 2 inches
