View attachment 86271 Installed rear lowering springs and am trying to decide if I need to do the front. Won't know until I put my SS Alcoa's back on to see how they fill in the front wheel gap. Measuring from the ground, both front and rear sit exactly even.
Tom,Yep, I was in the same situation recently when I did L springs. Back dropped nicely and wasn't sure I wanted to hassle with the fronts. I went ahead and did the front and it dropped about 3/8". Very subtle, but looks better. I am running 20x9 with 275/30 and 20x11 with 315/30 Invos front and rear. Zero rub!View attachment 86583 View attachment 86584
Nice!Since spring us up, thought maybe I would revive this thread. Had a good night at the local Cruz-in with a buddy. Represented the 13-14 crowd.
Tom,
The stance of your car looks great. I'm still considering if I want to do the front, but I'm a bit hesitant because I'm running a 275/35/20 on the 9" Alcoa wheel, which causes a slight sidewall bulge. I'm concerned because the tire slightly protrudes past the fender, I would potentially have tire-to-fender contact. My 35 front series takes up a bit more wheel well gap, compared to the rear which will be a 30 series tire.
Dan,
I understand your concern. My front actually sits further out by 1/4-3/8" on one side compared to the other. Guess the K-member is slightly off center or the fenders. Who knows--a car is like a box of legos being put together. The sidewall sticks past but the tread doesn't, which is one thing I like about Invos. The shoulders roll on them compared to the MPSS I had.
That is going to look awesome with those Alcoas.
We are running the same size tires and rims. I don't know the offset of my SS take-offs. What brand tires are you running?
Tom
