Newb here looking for a solution to height prob.
Tuesday, May 02, 2006 1:06 PM
Im trying to find a solution for the height of my car... Right now, it doesnt sit low enough and at the same time its too low. An air ride would be great but right now that might be too $$$$$. I was wondering if there was anything out there that could help. The whole kit is molded and one little bump anywhere could mean starting over. HELP ME!

Kinda, I bought a kit and molded it on. Its pretty low but could be lower.. but for driving around its too low already,, so high and low all in one.

im not follwing 100 percent either, but i think you molded your body kit to low on the car and yet your car is still high. there isnt much you can do maybe get a bigger series tire, i went from a 40r to 45r and i noticed a tade bit more travel in height its only about half a inch but thats all you need.

So you want your car lower, but you need it higher, and you don't want air suspension?

Shifted is the only person who hit it right on the nose... sorry for the wording and confusion. The kit is fine... but its moldes making my very cautious thats why I want it higher for driving. but for show and looks I would like to get rid of all the wheel gap and drop it to the ground... there are pics of my car in my profile.. Im new and dont know if or how to put them in this... anyways.. coil overs are an option but I dont know how much higher that would make it, and the design of them is such a pain to raise and lower...

Judging by your profile pics, it looks like the kit is too low, and lowering it would make it like hit the ground.

Coilovers work wonders though.

that kit is very low, but remember its urethane... it can handle a little scraping without breaking the kit.




Check out my build thread!

I disagree with everybody. Buy higher profile tires or larger rims and tires. It will lift the car and decrease the wheel gap.. plus look 100x better.
My old cavfire had 225/40/18s on it.... I was soooo much happier with those than I was the old 215/35/18s.
