Why would you want to take your Camaro as low as you could possibly get it? In doing so I would think your raising the risk of damaging body parts? Please enlighten me.

You can go lower...but you start putting other parts at risk. As my grandmother always said, "one thing begets another."

We have had tons of customers run a 1.5" front and 1.4" rear lowering spring with 20 + 10 front and 20 + 11 inch wheels in the rear and have not had any rubbing nor alignment issues. 305/35 or 315/35 have been the more common set of tires in the rear and 275/35 and 285/35 fronts. One of our employees has had a set on his car for over 3 years and has never had any issues. If you decide to go any lower than about 1.5 inches, then you may start needing camber bolts and things of that nature to adjust the alignment. Shoot us a email or PM if you have any questions or concerns. sales@phastekperformance.com
