I've found a few pics here and there on the forum, but does anyone have some good pics of a standard ZL1 that has both:

1) Eibach or BMR springs

and

2) 19" wheels

I've seen a few photos, mostly with Eibach on InfiniteReality's car (thanks for posting the great photos!)

I'm currently sitting on the stock 2017 spring, with the old/early design springs in the front, so it looks like a truck with "carolina squat" or whatever the kids call it.

I'd like to lower it, but to me Infinite's car with Eibach looks like it's completely slammed, which is more than I want.

Does anyone have some pics of a BMR setup with 19's? Or stock springs with 19's?

Furthermore, does BMR drop the car any more than a quarter or half inch more than stock springs? Should I just get a pair of front "new/current design" stock spring and call it a day? My rear currently sits about where I'd like it. I'd only want to drop the rear maybe half an inch, but as you can see in the photo, the front is atrocious (and no, the shipping blocks are not present, it's just that high).

I'm planning on 19" wheels eventually, and would like to see where I would sit with BMR's / Eibach / stock setup.

Any pics appreciated! Thanks for your time!

I am planning on doing this exact thing this weekend, I am currently running Eibach Pros and swapping over to the stock 1LE 19" wheels....I will take and post some pictures saturday afternoon if you are still looking for some.

What is your issue with the Eibachs? I think the stance is perfect and doesn't looked slammed but I guess it's a matter of opinion.

Yep, just personal preference. I think InfiniteReality's car looks awesome, but I would scrape sh!t all over the place, I feel.

There is the blue car, in this thread you and I were in, where it sits pretty much exactly like I'd like mine to sit (from the link in my post #6):

But then if you look at infinite's car, it has the same eibach setup with ZLE spec wheels, and it looks a good bit lower to me in the front, just based on fender gap:

Maybe it's just my eyes playing with me and the camera angles.

Then the only BMR photo I see with 19's is the other blue car in that last thread. To me, it looks a good bit taller than the eibach setups, but it's an odd camera angle, too.

I'll probably wind up with eibachs. Maybe infinite's car just sits low compared to some others.

Looking forward to seeing your pics for another data point! If it's close to that blue car with the ZLE wheels, that's the direction I'm going to go.

Edit: for reference, I'm currently sitting at 28" floor to fender at all 4 corners.

Mine are 20s and Phastek 1.5 front and 1.25 rears. Had those on both my Gen6s and Eibachs on my 15 SS Gen5.
I'm running a bigger 305-35-20 rear. Not exactly what your wanting but another option.

[RobZL1]

Sits like it should! I assume those are the RST PX1? I wonder if anyone has pics of those on mag ride struts? I would assume it sits differently with the MRC stuff?

subbed! Im also interested.

I like the way that blue one sits as well, my 1LE rims arrive tomorrow and they get mounted Saturday morning.

I can't wait to see how they turn out! Out of curiosity, do you know where you sit right now in terms of fender height from ground, or center of wheel to fender?

Here is my old car with 1LE spec 19’s and BMR springs.

I think your picture is the only one I found of BMR & 19's.

Thank you!

Any rubbing/hitting issues when hitting potholes? Also, did you have to move the wiring harness in the rear wheel well?


Thank you!

Thank you!

No fitment issues at all. Never rubbed even when getting over steep driveways sideways so nose didn’t rub. The 325/30/19 is shorter than stock so it’s way away from the harness in driver rear.
