I was planning on lowering mine, I just put on the front lip and am already scraping and that is stock height. I now do not think I will lower it. Don't want the issues I had with my RX7 where going to the shops involved planning a route I knew I would not tear my front bar off. And knowing where I nolonger can go due to big curbs or speed humps.

Hah that white GC8 isn't even that low!!

I'll try to scrape up some pics, unless TJ can find some. I had it with the entire dish part of the 18s up in the guard but it was sitting on the ground, couldn't drive too far like that, although I did try!!!

I will say that they didn't handle the best, and were very uncomfortable, often to a point where it did become bloody annoying!

My car is way too low.

The tyres rub on the inner guard liners, and sometimes the lips of the front guard. It bottoms out the sub-frame and exhaust on most speed bumps.

Looks way cool but its very impractical!!

...as long as my car is "lower" than yours kym, im happy

ps., "lifting cars" is the new black!!



I personally think a car can be too low. I dont even think "lowered" show cars look good i.,e car on its diffs + airbags = poo.

IMO a minor amount of lowering with well matched (offset) rims looks so much better than small wheels and it sitting on its belly

So? Tyre rub doesn't matter.

That pic above was when I had Whiteline G4's, Tein's went lots lower!
