patra_is_here Posted November 16, 2012 Report Share Posted November 16, 2012 based off of this , I'm convinced that stock 16" wheels can be tucked with the following mods: raised strut towerscamber platesRCA'sshortened struts with coil overslow profile tires in this photo I still have at least two or three inches of shock travel left.the main issue was the tire hitting the upper unibody. http://farm2.staticflickr.com/1380/5115218360_0c49a898d6.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skullzaflare Posted November 17, 2012 Report Share Posted November 17, 2012 this was as low as it would go before the tire hit. I still have about 2" of suspension travel though. need to clearance I guess. http://farm2.staticflickr.com/1430/5115015390_c4e6209fc7.jpg and no i don't actually drive it that low. I couldn't even pull out of my garage haha currently the car doesn't get driven. waiting for me to put a replacement motor in and take the car to the body shop.ahhh there you go! what was rubbing?was rubbing right there loli had about 1" in there, so it would hit on bumps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Convette Posted November 19, 2012 Report Share Posted November 19, 2012 (edited) Patra- ever thought about lowering your fender openings to get your tucked look?this is the lowest my car has ever been.

patra_is_here Posted November 19, 2012 Report Share Posted November 19, 2012 I GUESS THE 35MM ROLL CENTER SPACERS WILL FIT!!! thanks. looks like your exhaust is too low. ~~ takes off exhaust ~~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Komeuppance Posted November 19, 2012 Report Share Posted November 19, 2012 I think they're 21mm RCA's... got them cut down just in case I needed to put 7's on as a spare. That exhaust deleted itself within a week or two. http://home.comcast.net/~Komeuppance/Exhaust/Ex3.jpgThis one is much better lol. -Robert Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Convette Posted November 19, 2012 Report Share Posted November 19, 2012 undrivable because of why? airdam? inner fenders? unibody? Couldnt steer..at all, no more camber adjustment, rears rubbed like crazy. Even as the car sits now in a functional state, the inner rear fender tubs are polished from hitting. I dont have much left of my front inner fenders as it is.. This car just wasnt designed to be slammed. http://i177.photobucket.com/albums/w239/johnboy9788/IMG_8615.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
