Is your vehicle lowerd?

[Heller]

if so on coilovers or springs? my tc is lowerd with tanabe DF210 springs. 1.7 in the rear 1.5 in the front (inches)

before

during the process

fininshed product

not much but i did'nt want to slam it, just increase the handling a bit and get a little style.

what do you think?

and before you rag on me for the scion and the vvti tags it was bought that way, it was bluebooked at $11000 and i managed to snag it for $7500. $7500 for a 2 year car with a clean carfax is a steal.

'91 car with OEM '93 springs (slightly lower than 91).

 

[CraigRT]

Currently, no. Although I do plan on lowering eventually.
I had a lowered Neon R/T back in the day. stance was great on that car. It rode like a lumber wagon, but handled and looked good! 😛

 

[coxmaster]

No, not yet. Hopefully I'll get a full coilover set within a year or so

 

[amdhunter]

I lower my car everytime I sit in it. 🙂

I always loved the look of Scions. Yours even more so.

 

[angry hampster]

Still stock right now. I'll probably put new shocks on it next year, and when I do I'll get a good set of Bilsteins along with some Neuspeed Sport springs for a ~1.5" drop on my '03 GTI.

 

[JulesMaximus]

No, my car is stock. My bike is modded but none of the mods are performance enhancing mods...then again, it's a bike...nuff said.

Your car looks good though.

 

[Apex]

Noble: No, stock coilover height
911 Turbo: Yes, H&R Coilover
M5: Yes, Eibach springs
Trailblazer SS: Yes, coilovers front, air shock adjustment rear

i have mine lower with Vogtland springs 1.2in front and 1.2in rear.
same reason, better handling, less drag in turns, looks
i am still on air struts thou, i didn't want to compromise to much ride comfort

 

[SparkyJJO]

Yep, mine is. Stock springs are about a half inch on the saggy side

 

[ponyo]

No, I've a steep driveway. I already scratch the front air dam every time I pull out of the driveway and onto the street. Lowered car would not make it up my driveway.

 

[overst33r]

1.5in drop with Espelir springs. Looks amazing, but scrape a lot more and the bumpsteer is ridiculous. Eliminated most of the body roll though.

 

[RockinZ28]

With springs. Sometimes it can be a pain, but it looks so much better.

 

[Elganja]

As low as it can go on the factory lowering bolts

Btw, just lowering the car without doing the supporting mods (why coilovers are much better) can hurt handling more then helping. Most people do it for looks rather than function.

Don't forget to get an alignment after you lower it

 

[MJinZ]

Probably not getting coilovers.

 

[RedRooster]

I don't go lower, I just buy bigger wheels.

 

[MJinZ]

I don't go lower, I just buy bigger wheels.

That tends to make you go higher, even while lowering your sidewall.

 

[CRXican]

Evo - Springs
Miata - Coilovers

 

[Throckmorton]

My Jeep is lifted 2"

 

[BoT]

anybody on cardomain?

 

[Doggiedog]

My 335i is factory lowered with the sport package if that counts. I wouldn't want it any lower considering every time I hit a pothole, I lose a filling.

 

[thescreensavers]

on 350z revised Springs here, 1 inch all around.

 

[Imported]

Lowered on coilovers.. Bilstein PSS10. Love the ride.

Standing still:

In action:

 

[thedarkwolf]

Koni sport shocks with ebay coil over sleeves. 390lb front and 275lb rear springs.
May go a bit stronger spring in the front but I'm happy with how it does at autox for now without beating me to death during normal driving.

 

[Rifter]

Im on ground control coilovers but have them with custom length/rate springs at stock height.
