I love the new suspension... it goes into corners awesome
All constructive criticism is welcome.... please no negative.
The wheels were a gift (thats why they arent bigger) and I was grateful somebody spent that much so i am satisfied with them

What are you lowered on? Vogtland?
03-19-2011
ya i got 1.7 inches on them... not to shabby
03-19-2011
thats lowered?
03-19-2011
like i said 1.7 inches... i live in WI so i didnt want to push it to far.... plus the wheels arent big so i didnt want it to look gay

Yeah Vogtland's are not a heavy drop, they are more about actual suspension feel and handling then just dropping.
Would love to see someone drop on B&G.
I'm glad to see people actually listening to me and using other springs from 97-03's on the 04+

03-19-2011
here is a before... not to good tho

another before

Yeahhh, it's not a sharp drop but I'd be nervous about that myself.
My GP is my dd, and thinking back to this past winter, I think I'd have gotten stuck quite a few times if I were lowered any more than OP is, with the size of the mounds and drifts left over from what the plow guys here do... they're not the most thorough bunch.
I can see the difference though, I like it... I like the wheels too, maybe just a tinyyyyy bit bigger if I bought them myself!

ya i wanted 17s but atleast i got to pick them out

I live further north of you in NY, I'm dropped on SSC's, riding on 18" All-seasons and never corrected the camber. Never got stuck once and it is driven daily in a lot of snow storms. Just gotta be aware of where your driving and your surroundings. Also...I'm about to go lower....alot lower...probably a 3-4" drop overall
03-19-2011
Well I mean Im not talking about snowfall quantities or being careless, just that when the plow guys go down the road, at every intersection they go straight through so sometimes a pretty tall wall of snow is left over and they dont go back to clean it up or plow the rest of it away, just 1 pass and they say good enough... and sometimes where Im at they dont plow at all for a day or 2...
And I realize these cars are plows in themselves, I bash through everything, but even at my stock height I get hung up on this crap sometimes...maybe they plow better where you are. Maybe Im wrong, I could be since I never drove a lowered car in the snow, but it just seems to me if I almost get stuck on some of the higher stuff, I'd have to keep a shovel in the car with me should I lower very much.
03-19-2011
its okay, dont explain urself. there arent many people who have the balls to daily drive a lowered car. its not that hard tho. i keep a lil shovel anyways and im stock ride. helped me much when i got stuck in the blizzard.
03-19-2011
I plowed a lot of **** with my front lip....it happens.
you just do your best with it.
03-19-2011
yeah i was thinking about going with the ssc's, i like it a bit lower than this one, but now that he posted the before pics i can see the difference

Yes the roads in Wisconsin are terrible. They've literally opened up and swallowed things whole lately .
