Don't understand lowering???
Looking at my car and where the tires are in relation to the fenders, why would you want to lower the car anymore?

I'm running 8.5" front 10" rear foose wheels with the stock OEM tires. FYI

Lowering
Agree, that looks about right, certainly better than the 1LE at the Chicago Auto Show

IMO, My stock stance is just about right. No need to lower here..
Maybe some spacers in the future but that's it.

I really like the look of these lowered. I'm waiting to see what the options will be. I prefer running a coil-over setup so I can dial in the height exactly where I want it. I think with the Camaro, about 1.5" is a good amount on the stock tires/wheels. And spacers....

I have said this before, but there's a real difference between "adjusting" and "lowering".. I don't like lowering either, where it gets so low that The tire disappears behind a fender at the top,it just looks boy racer. However "adjusting" the height so that you eliminate the top wheel gap is something that I think is necessary on many cars these days. The Camaro seems to be in my opinion , pretty good stock, the Corvette is pretty terrible.

Same here, I think the stock set up is perfect

OC Auto that is nice! Eibach is working on the springs and will be out shortly. Where did yo install the springs?
I like the rims, they are about $1200 and I can use the stock tires. |
