Lowering My Car

[tonkatoyx2]

Hey i have 20's rims on my car

and im tryingto drop it as much as it will go.
( where i can drive it )

the tire is 225/35/20

but not really sure what the offset of the rim is i want to say +40

but any of you guys know how low i can go.

and what spring???


thanks alot

i dont know the awnser, but i can tell you that sprint/spring tech springs advertise 1.75" but they are really 2-2 1/4". and the rear ends up sitting a little to low

eibach is 1 to 1 1/4

I think a picture would help us decide.

i think a good safe bet would be the eibachs. I man they can settle in at like 1.5 or maybe 1.75. sprints seems less practical with 20's. but yeah, by the pictures, you need to get that 4x4 truck lowered pronto! lol I'm wondering if he lowerd it too much with those big of tires. wont that mess up your cvj's?

yea i know those Eibachs are like a 1" drop, but i don't know if payinglike 300 bucks just for 1" is worth it?

you know? but if you say they drop like 1.75 i may consider it

WTF are you talking about? First off u don't own 20's .. I have 20's with h&r's (is a 2" drop) before, but its now bagged. I with h&r springs on 20's with 40mm offset on 225/35/20 tires. I had 1 1/2 fender gap on the front. Turn radius is the same as usual. No sacrificing or anything.

you can get H&R springs easily. just goto www.tiretack.com .. search under suspension for 99+up grandam. Spring installation isn't hard, but if u don't have the tools or know what your doing then pay someone to do it right the first time. (then you won't have to waste time and labor)

[BLK03GXS]

I have the H&R springs, were an awsome upgrade over stock

[-Alero-]

i think your tire width would be the biggest issue here. before yo uknow what springs you want/can get

[AleroBloke]

obviously only few dare to do 20's, i'm sure you'll be fine with 20's if aftermath says, he has 20's and we don't. But i agree with -alero- tire width would be the biggest issue i'm sure, you've been chatting with aftermath, so. i'll shut my ass up now. haha
