Lowering
Stock to me my 86 TA looks like the front sits higher than the back.. so i was thinking about lowering the front more than the back.. lets say like 2" front and 1 1/2" rear.. Anyone have it done and can post some pics? A Firebird would be great. Thanks

I put the Eibach Sportlines on. They drop the front like 1.8" and the rear 1.3". It leveled the car out pretty nice.
You be the judge...

that 84 Z looks good with that stance. What size tires are you running on there and do they rub anything? I was thinking about lowering my car a little to make it handle better and I was worried about tire clearence problems

thank you for the compliments. i have yet to have any ground clearance problem. as for the tire size they are 245/50/16. they rub a very little bit when the steering is at full lock. it is not bad at all
