adding those removes the delay until the struts engage.

THey're just subframe washers.

you can get them for teh cheap from yards if the cars are in the air.

or be lazy.

actually the talked about 'anti-pogo' washers go on the upper strut mount.

but they are the frame washers.

ROC has the part numbers IIRC

okay, i get what you're saying. they are the same washers that are on the frame. got it.

how low can i go on 17's with 225/45 tires?

225/55r17 is the correct size if you want 225's.

well 225/45/17 is what im gonna have to work with. im trading spartans gtx's for my 20's and thats what tires are on them.

please change the tires to the right size...even being lowered its going to look stupid...

but, you can probably go as low as you want because of the offset on the gtx wheels.

No wonder his car looked like a super 4x4.... the tires were way too short.

cool... thanks guys.. guess ill just sell the tires after i get the rims.

So my car sits way nose high. Anyone see handling issue with only running front sprint springs 1.8'' advertised drop? It should level things out ncely

I can't wait til a month when I can put my new wheels on and get pics for this thread

a lot of people run only front springs. however, youre not taking care of the problem. your rear is sagging because of worn out springs. if you swapped a whole set of springs it will even out the car just fine because they are new.

Thanks bio

or get olds intrigue rear springs.

One thing I would add to this as it is interesting is could you add ball park pricing? If you know it that is just reading through it was nice but not seeing prices always makes me want to do something :p haha just a thought bio but great thread anything tires and dropping your the man

the problem with putting prices up is that prices always change and if youre doing it right you shouldnt be trying to do it on a budget as well.

I understand but the prices up front stop me from looking at it and deciding to spend the money :p.. Anytime I start looking seriously and shopping around I usually spend the money :( And I hate spending money

not my problem. just sayin.

bilstein B6 HD's are well over a grand yet you COULD lower your car on stock shocks.

Talked to a local who did that, says it rides fine.
