Anyone with a lowered car, please post pics.
could you guys please post any pics of your lowered camaros. could you please tell me how low you went in the front and back. also could you tell me if you ran into any major problems installing them. how is your ground clearance. do your 17inch wheels rub alot(if you have 17s). also what lowering kit did you go with. thanks alot for any info.
I used Hotchkis springs. Dropped about 1 1/2 to 2 inches all the way around. They were easy to install. I have to watch where I drive. The spoiler doesn't rub much more than usual, but my subframe connectors scrub all the time. My tires don't rub at all.

I have a bunch of pics, all thumbnailed on my site here. I did the 1" drop with the Eibach ProKit all the way around.
I love the way it handles since I did it. I'm still running stock 16" wheels, which rub slightly at full lock in reverse already, and not because I lowered the car. My 17" rims are on their way (allegedly) so I can 't answer that question, yet.
I had no problems doing the springs, and even did them w/o a spring compressor.
Change your shocks while your down there, and plan for an alignment immediately following the install.
I rub the air dam slighlty on steeper inclines, but for the most part I haven't scraped anything at all.

Watch out for bricks
Seriously, I have only lowered my car about 1 - 1.5" with Jamex springs. The other night, there was a brick in the road and I didnt have enouogh time to react. This is the result:


where can i get one of these spring kits. I really want to check it out first. Does anyone have any words of advise. Is it a pain or is it fairly simple. Just want to know everything before i get one.

Eibach sportlines. About a 2 inch drop. Ride hieght is about the same becasue I got bigger wheels and tires. No rubbing at all just a bumpier ride.
