The Slammed Life

[Talon2nr]

looking more for suggestions, i know its not slammed like some of these cars

Are the wheels gunmetal? I like the look but it can definitely go lower. What suspension are you on?

 

[Talon2nr]

wheels are actually matte army green, something different for winter, grabbing new wheels in the spring. Its on ISC coilovers, maxed out :/ with collars pulled in the front. Not sure what the next step would be to get it lower. ISC's just must not go that low. Got a super deal on them thats why i went with that.

 

[Chefsp0t]

If you want to go lower you'll need KWs or BCs. BCs will get it on the ground if that's what you want.

essentially yah, i mean im not dying to get lower but that was my intention originally. Maybe swap these out in the spring and sell them. They ride good and perform well but i lowered it to be LOW, not for track purposes.

 

[Chefsp0t]

That's a good functional height. If you want a non-functional, street-scraping, speed bump-avoiding ride then I would highly recommend picking up some BC coilovers with their extreme drop kit springs. They are 135mm 10k rate up front and 180mm 6k rear and they will go LOW.

This was their extreme drop kit turned down all the way with all collars intact in front and the rear perches/collars removed but the spring seat still in place. I still had easily another inch of drop left on them.

On 19s- Don't mind the unpainted fender flares. That was before paint but I don't have any side shots before I swapped the wheels for winter.

On 17s

If you don't have much intention of tracking your car at all, just get it low for the street! Once you see and drive your car when it's just slammed, you'll love it lol.

I'n not even sure where I fit in, winter is coming so it'll be back to stock soon.

Are those King size Marlboro's? Or Regulars?

 

[Always Forgive]

Regular Marlboro 27's...

 

[CRG Racer24]

Well, I'm not too familiar with American Smokes and such.. just curious about the smokes. Anyway, the car does look nice man. Do you know how far off the ground your subframe and/or oil pan is?

 

[Always Forgive]

I'd have to get exact measurements, I'm not sure. I'm not as low as some others, I can't be. (sadbanana)

 

[INeedMoarLow]

Sorry for the disappearance, but I'm back and I'll get you added CRG

You're low but I wouldn't say slammed. The ms3 front bumper sits lower than the regular hatch bumper so it's definitely low up front. I'd guess that your ground clearance from the pinch weld to the ground is around 3.25" and the measurement from the top of your fender arch to the ground is around 24". You're tucking some tire but if those are 18s your fender needs to be a little closer to the wheel to be considered slammed.
