Can i run these two together? will i have to roll my fenders or will there still be a lil wheel gap? its for an 04 gt but i saw a guy on gpona go with the 03 ssc's and those r rated at less of a drop. would i be better off doing that?

SSC's drop more on 04+ because they are heavier.
You can run them together but the struts wont last very long. 20-40 K miles.

i was thinking vogtlands.... is that a better option
02-14-2011
struts will last longer, yes.
Slightly better handling, slightly lowered car.
Less axle problems and LCA bushing/ball joint wear.

will i notice the drop? and where can i get them for an 04? or can i just runt the ones for an 03?
02-14-2011
run the ones from an 03.
you'll drop more, but theres nothing that can be done about it.
you'll notice it more than you would on a 97-03
02-14-2011
so am i looking at prolly about 1.5 inches or closer to 2
02-14-2011
I run this pair on mine but It's a 97. They look great. Probably the perfect drop for some 18's. They will last quite a while if you don't have crappy roads. I think my top mount plates are starting to go out on me. It's been about 15k with bumpy roads and me driving like a retard on them. The struts and springs are still working great tho.

i will be running them with stock tire size... and i just dont want to waist my money on something thats barely noticable
02-14-2011
thank you very much
02-14-2011
if youre going to drop the car then vogtlands are a waste of money, in my opinion. if you want to go low, just do it. dont play around with springs that dont lower the car that much.
02-14-2011
ya but i dont want to only get 20 k out of struts.... i need atleast 40k before i get rid of it
02-14-2011
you can get whatever you want out of the struts. they really dont blow as fast as people say. it is something you get used to after so long of driving it.
02-14-2011
can i run the ssc's with stock tire siz and still have a little bit of room?
02-14-2011
I heard that someone kept blowing out axles going over potholes with the ssc's and the roads around me arnt exactly good... will this affect me?
02-14-2011
you are asking a lot of questions about lowering that you shouldnt be asking if you have been researching a little.
check out this thread:

get back to us when you think youre ready.
02-15-2011
yes i have read that, but it doesnt answer the questions about rather my road conditions will affect my struts? and it doesnt have a picture on an 04 with the 1.7 inch drop... so i am just in the middle of the decision
02-16-2011
rougher roads, less the struts last.
