that looks more like 60mm as it is much lower than mine which is 50mm, I need 2 passengers to make it go down that much :?

ground control coilovers pal...

the backs were completely dismantled... just using the spring from the kit which is tiny but set her down nice.

the fronts are adjusted down on the coilover... tho it had to be raised as it rubbed something fierce on the wings.

Your cabs were my inspiration shaz!!!

Mine's on H+R Shocks and Springs, 60/40 drop with 16's, Front are close but should get away with it, I'll change the tyres if I need to gain a bit more clearane. Happy with the way it sits!!

That is low.... I'd say the front is atleast 80mm if they're 16's on there. With 16's on a 60mm drop the front wheel has a gap.

I did get my springs heated all theway, it looked the business back then and sure did it for the girls too!!

Azev's were the nuts back in the days, borbets, rh's, the only ones i used to go for. I think the car in southalll is my old one as a friend has told me it's still around. I oved that car soooooo much - and my old Baur next to it too..

8O Speedbumps p**s me off and mines on standard m-tech suspension. Some of these cabs do look very nice granted, but how you put up with driving them I don't know. Sy_325 very nice looking car, but I couldn't justify a drop that low. I'm guessing most of these aren't daily drivers.

Baz666, just my opinion, but if you lost the eyebrows that would look absolutely mint! Nice car mate, keep the BBS. Or sell them to me :p.

Cheers Goochie! I saw it at ace cafe last month and it looked stunning!

Heres my Sterling Silver cab its only dropped 40mm, I couldnt justify lowering it any more due the amount of speed humps down here!

Wrong.

For crying out loud did you see the frost in his windscreen? Can you not see how absurd Cali lo-rider style is in a German cabrio in Macclesfield?

Just stop lowering cars. Stop it.

Stop stop stop.

Or move to Venice (California not Italy) and do it real.

Nice cars tho. :cool:
