Got the Super Rake drop today!

Finally got my CT sprangs on... but ran out of time (long story) and my mechanic could only do the fronts! I filled the gas tank to even it out some.
it's not that bad really, just my headlights are low. Handles better, I'm on stock tires.
Will do the rears next week.

Okay....

Take pics, it might look cool. Probably not though since we are a long way from a car that needs to be that raked.

good point, I never thought of the gas affecting the drop, but now that you mention it, my drop in the rear is always different. you have to get shots of that rake...

all of the springs for the cl other than coil overs lower the front more than the rear... personaly i dont like the drop on the comptech its not low enough... i grew up in florida with not bumps hills just flat str8 roads.... so if your car wasnt on the groun is wasnt shit...... i love a car that is tucking rim( just for show)

When and why would we need the CL to be raked?
