Will this look stupid guys?
Ok I need new shocks n Struts for the RS. When I hit a bump it freakin HURTS. So I was thinking about lowering the car. Would this look weird? I dont have any rims besides the stock RS rims. I am planning on gettin me a set of the Torque Thursts next summer when I get a real job or hit the lotto. I dont want to drop the car or nothing, figuring a 1.5 drop or something around there. So any pictures out there of a camaro dropped with 15inch rims. Or any idea on how it would look? Thanks guys.

I lowered mine a 2' drop, and it looks great! I have the 15' rims too (the ugly red painted snatchy lookin'...grrrr) and it's still great looking. I did it for performance reasons as well as astetics. I have some pictures somewhere that I've been meaning to scan (before's and afters). All I got to say really is: looks great, more scatching.

IT IS SUCH A BITCH TO GET IN THERE! WHEN I FIRST BOUGHT MY CAR I SCRAPED MY EXHAUST EVERY TIME I WENT DOWN, IN ADDITION TO MY FRONT CLIP
I COULD ONLY IMAGINE WHAT WOULD HAPPEN IF I LOWERED MY CAR!!!
