tigawoods and hatchhy gst, what are you guys running in terms of suspension? Springs or full coilovers? and what brand and how low. Im gunna be buying springs over the winter, and the raods in my city are real rough, so I don't want to go too low but i like the height of both of your cars.

The one thing you need to look at if you are getting springs is also struts, because you cant really do 1 without the other. Also an fyi do not get the coil springs for mac. struts the the worse things when it comes to ride quality |

so i guess it did not look like a 5" drop on mine so i took these pics this morning next to a jeep wrangler so you could get some prospective, i wanted to get another 6gc but there is none in town. this is a stock jeep at the dealership and as you can see the door handles on it are higher than the roof of my car......

I just found the one picture that I ever got of my car when I had it lowered. Forgive how dirty it is... Just thought I'd post it here in case anybody ever needs a reference picture. It was dropped 1.5" on Eibach Sportlines.
