Red face LIPPSTUH likes to get lowwwwww (Cell Phone Pix.... really)

Picked up some coilovers to fix my retarded drop due to my heavy audio equipment in my trunk.

I'm going to adjust it later on today since it's too low and I'm rubbing. Might roll fenders later on.

The rear is a bit higher than the front, the front barely clears the inside fender, but rubs when going up drive ways more than 5mph or turning hard.

I will be raising the front to match the rear.


anyways enjoy my crappy cellfone pictures. don't complain =P

+48 on a 7.5" rim is cutting it close. Same offset on a 8" rim = rubbage. Nice drop BTW.

I love the drop, need to do the same for the back though. Figure out a way to keep it that low ie; roll fenders or diff wheels so you can keep that drop cause it looks hot

Thats what mine looked like when I first dropped it with my RHs. If I were you I would split the difference.

After adjusting mine, I would barely rub if the wheels were turned, even then it was barely touching the plastic. I just couldn't tuck the tire in the back so that was limited unless I rolled the fenders. I think that you can only roll the rear fender, I don't think the front is possible.

But your ride looks 10x better with the drop

you can roll the front fenders.

i had a drop before lol, just imagine the front have 1-2 fingers while the rear is the same as the current drop...

thanks for the comments, i just raised the front to match the rear for now. don't have time to roll fenders yet, but i will sooner or later

Run 1-2 12's in a ported enclosure and it will sound just as good/loud.

I got a single 12 in 2.5cf ported tuned to 28hz. Whole setup weighs around 100lbs and I can't imagine adding anymore subs.

no point in rolling front fenders, we have no lip on the front like the rear. now pulling is a total different story.

That is one hella low ride, the front has no gap at all.
I agree with cltypeSLOW, add some weight to ur trunk and it will do it.
