I don't like the idea of having "bags" on the car but it is a possibility so I can raise it when I need to. I live in Philly (anybody who's been there knows of the potholes - the streets are almost like off-road streets). My main concern is I want to lower it without spending a lot of money, but I also don't want it to negativley affect the performance or handling. For me this car is performance 1st, looks 2nd.
Thanks for you help!  |
1 to 1.5 inch drop will work. Dropping it super low will have some very aggressive negative affects on the geometry of the Camaro.
Pedders will have available drop coils, and an eXtreme XA Mono tube 30 way adjustable coil over with 3 different spring options.
You are getting a Camaro. Even the V6s will be performance oriented. Dropping it too much will make a show car only. All show and no go!!
