9719, Lowering question
Posted by run4cvr, May-29-02 04:56 PM
I might buy some Eibach prokit 1 1/2" lowering springs and was wondering if i would run into any problems. I have Pirelli P6000 205/55's mounted on Enkei TBS-11 16x7's. Thanks...

Na, no worries. There is plenty of room in there.

My 16's with the 205/55 winter tires.



Car sits really low on 16's and 1.3 drop springs. I like it. Actually I haven't put my rated r's back on yet cause my car seems swifer with the 16's :)

my ride is a couple inches lower than that pic right there most of the time. i only have 15" wheels with 55/205's so it sits real low...hahaha. it can be interesting sometimes.

I forgot to ask if i also needed a camber kit if i am only going like an inch?

No, a camber kit is not likely to be needed with that drop.

I have a 2 inch drop, and i haven't had too bad of a camber problem at all. Are you going gas shocks too? I have tokico blues, bumpy, but less than stock. I wouldn't worry about camber with that drop.

Later,

when i first got my sprints, which ar a 2 inch drop, the camber was 2.72 left, 2.67 right on the back wheels.That is like 1 degree out of spec,(sombody correct me if i'm wrong) but with the pro kits, don't sweat it.
