Elmo Posted October 16, 2010 Share Posted October 16, 2010 I've been pondering this for a while, what do you guys think? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supra-Brett Posted October 16, 2010 Share Posted October 16, 2010 No low enough and almost unusable if lowered with all the speed bumps around nowadays Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nemesis Posted October 16, 2010 Share Posted October 16, 2010 Looks perfect as it is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
w41k3r Posted October 16, 2010 Share Posted October 16, 2010 i think the rears fine front maybe 5 or 10m more but thats just my opinion Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elmo Posted October 16, 2010 Author Share Posted October 16, 2010 Thanks for the comments guys i think the rears fine front maybe 5 or 10m more but thats just my opinion Thats what I thought, the front looks a little higher than the rear, is it OK to only fit lowering springs to the front??

stevie_b Posted October 16, 2010 Share Posted October 16, 2010 Purely subjective, but I'd say no. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
w41k3r Posted October 16, 2010 Share Posted October 16, 2010 yeah id say no as it could mess the handling up id just try find a set that offsets it a little, mine sits lower at the front mines on trd shocks with tt espiller lowering springs but couldnt tell you the drop as they were on someones car before mine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josh Posted October 16, 2010 Share Posted October 16, 2010 I'd say if anything lower the front 5-10mm but other than that, it looks fine as it is Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamieP Posted October 16, 2010 Share Posted October 16, 2010 Lower the front 20mm would give it a better stance imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Raven Posted October 16, 2010 Share Posted October 16, 2010 Lower the front 20mm would give it a better stance imo. Im with Jamie. With a stock front clearance shouldnt be an issue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
w41k3r Posted October 16, 2010 Share Posted October 16, 2010 might just be me but it looks a little lower than stock already hence why i said 5 or 10mm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dnk Posted October 16, 2010 Share Posted October 16, 2010 (edited) Slam it to the deck i say What is the car on now suspension wise ? Is it a daily driver or weekend car ? Are you prepared to lose some comfort in the ride if you lower it ? If you lower it you really should get a full suspension geo done but to be honest you should get that done anyway unless its been done. If you just lower the front you could could seriously screw up how the car handles unless you get the spring rates right that go with whatevers on the rear. The other option is to fit a lowering spring kit such as the Eibach pro sport and do both the front and rear to keep a good balance, these are quite firm though and i'd recomend getting a drive in a car with some fitted to see what there like Edited October 16, 2010 by Dnk (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luxluc Posted October 16, 2010 Share Posted October 16, 2010 I would love the front a bit ; rear looks fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elmo Posted October 16, 2010 Author Share Posted October 16, 2010 Current suspension is stock, and I use the car daily. I do need to go over speed bumps on my way to/back from work, but they aren't too high. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You really should not worry about speed bumps even dropping 20mm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
