Handling is beautiful..

No, not the lowest the skunks can go.. lowest my tires will handle though.. back fenders are sitting on the tires .. cant fit my finger in there..


No rubbing so far though..
 
Yeah, I had to roll mine and I have less than a 1/4" clearence. I can't even fit my pinky in there! Watch your alignment, I ate up a brand new set of tires in less than 2 months. I toed my front tires in too much and just wasted them!

Yeah.. have to get my alignment.. rears are prob gonna rub after I get them straightened...

an alignment can't correct camber in the rear, and can only add a little in the front by rotating the mounts. the alignment is to correct toe which can cause rapid tire wear and undesirable handling characteristics.
 
how is the ride quality. Is it very harsh? How is it compared to your other lowering springs (if you had any?)g
 
nope.. never had any other type of lowering springs..

very bouncy.. but so far, very tolertable..

I thought I would be full scraping the skirts.. theya re like.. 3 inches off the ground.. but I took her out today.. not rubbing, scraping... nothing so far.


Very nice.

So.. I cant fix the rear tires from looking like this?

Weird..
 
looking good dude. what offset is your rim? u can slam wayyy lower than that i believe. also, does it make clunking noises? beware, mine did after a while and never went away... and that is a problem most people have with theirs.

nice dude, take more shots further away!

peace
 
Yup.. clunking gets annoying.. but thats why you have sounds!


Offest is +42.. cant go any lower.. definatly going to rub..
