thanks to aledelic42 i now am ordering so coils or springs but just wanted to share some pics he did for me



or this

 

IMO the second one looks terrible. Also, your wheels are way too big and are bad for traction.

 

I personally think the second one looks way to low.

 

ok well for one the wheels are 17'' and the tires are 225/45/r17 and not like im tracking the car

 

yeah i like the 2nd one if it wasn't a dd im prob gonna do the first

 

bad for traction?

anyway i wouldnt go lower than the top pic for DD... youll be loosing oil pans fast!

 

yeah i am gonna take my oil pan off and tig up a nice big piece of aluminum on the bottom and then i ordered a skid plate

 

Watch Top Gear Australia season 2 episode 2. They compare the Holden Special Vehicles Clubsport to the supercharged version by Walkinshaw Performance and the SC car gets its *** kicked in lap time. Then they switch out the 22" tires on the Walkinshaw for 20" ones and it beats the crap out of the other two times. They explain why low profile tires suck for traction and how that affected the times.

Low profile tires = all show, no go. (Though, personally, I don't think they've got show, but some people obviously disagree with that.)

 

Which are you looking to get out of lowering?

The more elegant look or the WTF you're low look?

 

lol I wasn't expecting you to share those pictures. it might be hard to get low on those tires, get some 205/45s next time you need new ones then you should be good. or 205/40 if you want more low. the height of the second picture would look better in person but I'm not sure how drivable that is.
