What would my car look like lowered?

[myGAGT1]

I'm thinking about lowering my car, but I'm not completely sold on the idea. Can you people please post pics of your lowered cars? And please also note what product you used to lower.

Thanks.

Also, here's a pic of my ride now. Can someone with the same setup show me how their 2000 silvermist GT looks?

Here are my pics before and after lowering my car 1.5" with Eibach Pro-Kit springs.

Looks good, thinking of doing a 2.1 inch drop on my 98 two door gagt.
wish me luck, afterall, I do live in Maine.

Wow! That looks really good actually! Didn't know you could fill up the wheel well that nicely with the stock rim/tires. How do you like the ride of the Prokit?

It feels really nice compared to stock springs. I don't feel that much understeer anymore. I like them a lot. It was a real easy job to do yourself also. You should get these springs!!!!!!!!:D

I've really been considering it, but its been said that lowering springs wear out your stock struts..So chances are i'm going to wait till I get new struts as well before I do that.

let me know where and how much for springs that will lower our cars 2.1"............ill get them in a heartbeat........ :eek:

I have a question about lowering with the Eibac's. Since they dont lower the car much is it ok to run with stock struts? I want to lower my car but I dont exactly have the cash to do new struts right now. (wedding :cheers: ) my car has 60,000 on it. Also, does any one who has these springs on their car, have any experiance with rubbing when you put 4 people in your car or have a trunk load of stuff like suitcases?

[claymore]

So I take it no one knows???:confused:

i never had a problem with the H&rs. the springs are stiffer, so when you add more weight to the car, it won't sit that much lower. whats more of a problem is getting into driveways and such. i never scraped my gt, but it is possible, you definately have to be more careful with it being low.

so its ok to use the stock struts with the springs? atleast for a while???

you shouldn't have any problems. I got h&r...had 5 people in the car and a trunk full of camp gear for the whole weekend...it looked hella low...but never craped
