Too low?
Hey guys, I recently installed a Razzi kit and Pfadt lowering springs. The problem I'm having is no one wants to do an alignment on the car because of how low it sits and it will rub the side skirts driving up the ramp. Does anybody know someone in Vegas with flat drive on unit (not sure the correct terminology here) that will do an alignment for me besides the BMW dealership who wants to charge me $200.00? It isn't my daily driver anymore and its basically a weekend car now so I could go to the BMW dealership but I'm trying to be a little cost effective since the holidays are coming near and would like to get this done at a reasonable price. Thanks in advance.

any reputable shop will be able to get the car on/off ramps WITHOUT the skirts hitting. The just need a couple of boards....
My car is really low and my local shop had no issue getting it up on a standard lift. I dont know the area, maybe try the regional section here on C5. Good Luck!! J |

I would give Sam Smith at Fairway Chevrolet a call. His number is 702.641.1400. I am not guaranteeing anything, but he may be able to help. He is a great guy. Tell him we directed you towards him!

After my drop, I had Tom Henry Chevy align my car. The techs used boards to ease the angle of the incline. My car is pretty low on Pedders coil-overs and didn't scrape going onto the alignment rack.

Sam at Fairway actually does my tuning and installs on the car, I didn't think to call him as he is more on the maintenance side of things but I'll give him a call.

I'm running the Pfadt springs and Razzi skirts. It's only about 1" difference with the new Razzi skirts.... but it looks/appears to be much lower than just 1".
