Lowered with new wheels!

ItaliStang · October 3rd, 2009, 11:55 PM

Just finished the install on the suspension yesterday!
Had bought some stock 17" bullitts from some guy for a crazy low price ($150 for the whole set

)
and got another good deal on tires through a buddy of mine, so I decided to just do the whole suspension for the hell of it...

Maximum Motorsports CC plates
Tokico HP shocks/struts
Eibach Pro Kit

Would look a lot better with 18's but can't complain with the price I paid for these, and it's at least better than what I had...
front could go a bit lower, but I've heard it'll settle after a little while anyway...

So I've gone from this...

To this

I'm jealous of my buddy's lift... I want one so bad... haha

That garage is a third the size of mine and I can't believe there's a lift in there. Makes me jelous too. Now I need to get one, only if the wife would sign off on it!

Hell of a lot better than the old ones... just take a look... I'd say it's safe to say these we're shot to hell...haha

and there's no way I'm taking those springs out again anytime soon... haha I only have so much frustration before I set a car on fire...lol

Oh my....

Mr. Zip · October 4th, 2009, 02:32 AM

Damn, you needed new struts!

goren813 · October 5th, 2009, 11:40 AM

Wow the difference 18's make with that set-up they fill the well out so nice. Looks good though bet you love it over stock !

XectriK · October 5th, 2009, 11:55 AM

Looks good man, and yeah 18s fill the wheel well so much better.

6ER THEN I 8ER! · October 5th, 2009, 05:12 PM

looks great....glad you like the new look

Muscletang · October 5th, 2009, 06:11 PM

Big improvement man. Looks great.

ItaliStang · October 5th, 2009, 07:09 PM

I'm starting to think about selling these springs and getting sportlines...lol
it's great that it's lower, but that's still about stock height looking comapred with just about any other car...

If the front doesn't settle, then I might consider selling them for the sportlines, or doing like 93hatch said and pull the iso's, but that sounds like it would make the ride worse...

I think my minitrucker friends are wearing off on me... it's just never low enough...haha

Dansby · October 5th, 2009, 07:16 PM

You're going to want sportlines. I'm rocking 17s with sportlines and its perfect.

Dansby · October 5th, 2009, 07:23 PM

And thats with stock shocks and I still want to take out the front isos.

ItaliStang · October 5th, 2009, 07:32 PM

damn it...

now you're gonna make me take all this shit apart again...

cause that is exactly the stance I want

hopefully I can find someone that wants a Pro kit...lol

Dansby · October 5th, 2009, 07:34 PM

Ha, good luck with that. Send it back? haha.

ItaliStang · October 5th, 2009, 07:37 PM
