Does it need lowered?

[JLear]

I've been debating on whether to lower my car or not and just wanted some others opinions. I'm mostly wanting to get rid of the fender gap but not going for the "slammed" look. I think the front looks pretty good now but there's a pretty big gap in the rear. So, would y'all leave it alone or lower it? If I do lower it will most likely be with the Eibach pro kit which advertises a drop of 1.2" up front and 1.7 in the rear. Let me know your opinions! :beer:

Honestly, I think it looks good as is!

Now would be a good time to lower, Koni and BMR are having sales. If you lower you would also want new shocks/struts, camber plates and a panhard bar minimum.

It looks good now, but definitely go pro kit, I have one waiting in my basement to go on when I get motivated but I would do it.

Your shocks and struts should be fine. You should get an adjustable panhard bar. M-5300-L FRPP springs are not too low and looked good.

I have been going back and forth about lowering my 11 sterling gray too lol! I just dont know!! If you do it please post up some after pics.

Based on a little research, I should be fine with just adding an adjustable panhard bar and camber bolts for the front, if I end up lowering.

JL, your car sits lower than my stock 2010. Personally, I would be satisfied with the way yours sits right now if it were me.

I bought the Eibach Pro kit from Lethal Performance for my 2010 a few weeks ago and plan to install them with a friend this coming Thursday. I also ordered the MM caster plates from Lethal today after determining from my alignment shop that these will be necessary to do a proper alignment. With 1600.00 worth of new F1 tires on the car (when I bought it) I certainly don't want the front tires wearing prematurely. I'll post some pics when finished.

looks pretty good as is. the pro kit will drop it just enough and it rides like stock.

Your car looks great but would definitely benefit from the Pro-kit. You'll basically be removing the gap in the wheel well that you have now.

We've got Pro-kits as well as camber bolts and panhard rods in stock so when you're ready give us a call and we'll take good care of you.

Make sure to mention the SVTP discount when you call in.

Let me know if there's anything else we can help you with in the meantime.

Thanks, Jared

You might want to check those numbers again, I'm pretty sure the sportlines are a bigger drop than the pro's.

drop it, drop it low!

 

[JLear]

drop it, drop it low!

I thought you told me it didn't need lowered?

 

[getTwisted]

lower it. you will be surprised at how much better it makes it look. and if your not sure, go with a light drop, maybe and inch or so.

 

[iwannacobra5]

eibach pro kit would be just right....and ride like stock.
