Default 2003 GT

I just got H&R lowering springs. It drops the front "1.6 and the back "2. I have the convertable premium and I have the stock wheels still. How will it look?

About two inches lower.(Forgive the wiseaxx response.)
Seems like a question you should have asked before purchasing the springs.Someone here must have pics of a car with the same set up.

It will look pretty similar to mine which is dropped on Sportlines.

Happy birthday!
The only car related gift that I've received,was a creeper from my dad,which I'm still using after three decades.

Thanks dude. It still needs some 270's and a P1SC but she still looks pretty decent for being a 15 year old car.

As a practical old guy(63) that only does necessary work on a bone stock car,doesn't want to cross driveway aprons crab style,may I ask what are the benefits from the swap,other than visual? I would imagine that the springs would have to have higher rates,that the steering geometry is altered,and that the car now needs an alignment?
