looks good, just be careful with your camber. i dropped mine before with coilovers about 3-3.5 inches and my front camber killed my tires. now it spends most of its time on the frame

what coilovers did you have? i had ground controls for awhile, didn't care for the sleeve coilovers much. I rode on the apexi setup for awhile, i liked those alot.


also, any thought on new rims? maybe 18's

hey ghander, whats up. anyway, first i had apc, then i rode in one with skunk2. i didnt notice much of a difference, but the skunk2's were better. i agree the sleeves arent the greatest. everyone swears on the ground controls. never rode them or apexi's, but i heard the apexi's ride pretty smooth.

The sleeve design doesn't have anything to do with the way the car rides or handles. It's the spring rates and lengths and what shocks you pair them with. With GC's, you can get a super low and super stiff spring on a sleeve that fits over stock shocks and of course it's gonna ride and handle like shit. Guess that's why some people have had bad experiences with them.

My goodness your cars are low! Must be nice to live somewhere where you don't have to battle snowy winters! Here, you'd be stuck in no time.

sorry, but that does have some to do w/ it, but alot of them crack and mess up the geometry of the suspension. Just my experience from working w/ them at my old shop
