the lip in the wheel well comes rolled from the factory, no need to roll them.

Why would it be any harder to lower a 1LE than any other SS aside from maybe wheel/ tire fitment depending on coilovers/ springs used?

That's no 1le if the front fascia (and his profile info XD) is to be believed.

1LT, and to answer the question of noise they are very quiet, surprisingly so. Only get a clunk slung with large bump. The handling is incredible as I like to be aggressive on the back roads which are mostly empty out here in the woods.

Think I left a question unanswered, the car is actually lowered 2" or ver close to it.

If you don't mind my asking - what did you pay for that set up to lower the car? I'm going to go down that route for my 2LT.

I got a great deal $1750 coilovers with bearing mount and $169 for the rear ZL1 sway bar with end links (from Maureen of course) on the sway.
