Pedders Supercars
Can anyone point me in the direction of where to purchase these? Every website shows them as out of stock, including pedders themselves. Not looking to purchase right this minute but here very soon. Is it possible that these show out of stock because they are built to order?
I plan on running these with BMR sways on my 14 1LE Thanks |

They are made in China now. They are made last I was told by Pedders 3-4 months ago. I had them for four years. Now they maybe no better then bc racing as pricing is about the same where before they were twice as much when made to higher standards(?) I and others never could get good street ride from them due to stiff front springs and poor valving . You might as well get the be racing version double adjustable coilovers. Not the same internally but close I bet. If not get ridetechs like I did. They are much better in all respects and can custom Taylor the springs

Well it all makes sense now lol
My other option was looking at the Bilstein PSS10 on tirerack for $1800. VR Baron are you running the single or triple adjustable ridetechs? The single adjustables are at the tippy top of my range for coilovers so I wouldn’t mind picking those up if they are solid. I just liked the idea of bound and compression adjustments. |

Hmmm sounds like I will be in contact with JDP in a few weeks then so I can get the ridetechs ordered.
Coming from a c5 z06, the 1LE is definitely slightly more refined. I’m looking forward to modifying it further. Doing the suspension stuff first, I competed in an autocross a few weeks ago on g-force comp 2s and was only a second off the pace of the top guys in the CAM-C class. So with a set of ride techs, a 19” wheel set up with the re71s I should be good to dominate the class locally next year. Coming from a 315 square set up of rivals on the vette to the comp 2s I discovered just how much I had to steer with the butt of the car lol |

And ridetechs come with camber plates so you can adjust from stock to like -3 degrees I think. I set it to full race and adjust down to where I want |

Yeah, ive been looking at z/28 offsets so i don't think it should be too big of an issue. We have a few people in our local region who are national champs so i'm not unaccustomed to big competition. We even have guys like dann popp from up in cincy come down to the KY region and race periodically. Not always danny himself but guys with similar abilities. I used to set FTD in my z06 and it was stock suspension wise other than the 18x10.5s with rivals.
This car should be a fun one, i feel like with the right suspension set up and tire combo i could be right back near FTD times but in a car i completely feel comfortable driving every day should i need to. |

My car feels very comfortable on the street with the 20” tires and ridetechs at the suggested street setting. Best it’s ever been. Springs are 300/550. Sways are dse set full soft and shocks in the middle for our lousy parking lot surfaces that are gravely and dirty. Stiffer just slides |
