I will be able to tell you soon. Its not that you CANT get them, its just that you are going to have more clearance issues.
But most high performance cars are lowered for handling.. so you must be able to work it out.

yes you can but you need really really stiff springs for anything lowered more than 2" just get high rate springs

yes technically speaking.....but you will regret it......and i can almost gurantee that you have huge problems bottoming out on all but the smoothest of roads.

like i told you i have a 1.5 inch drop and i'm worried about LT's on that.

email eibach and ask what were the springs that they supplied bondurant for use on the cobras. because they bondurant cobras had 2" lowering springs and LT and they used them to race in
