Lowered w/ Longtubes
 
Hey everyone.I am thinking about lowering my car, but i'm not sure how low to go.I have long tubes and I really dont want to mess them up by bottoming out.I'd really like to get sportlines but i think that will be to low.Just wondering what springs other guys with l/t' have and how often you scrap? Thanks

pro kit, or any lowering equivalent is what i would go with. i think sportlines would be too low. i have them and I scrape with the stock midpipe all the time, so you def. will sometimes with longtubes

sportlines do look awesome though, IMO

I scrape with stock springs.

sportlines and BBK LTs here, you just have to be extra careful and go over any large bumps in the road at an angle.

Ok, thanks alot for the replys guys,i just really dont want to have to worry about screwing them up.I'll probably just get sportlines and be careful over speedbumps.Thanks again

I had a 2" drop and lts and have never had any problems. . . But it was too low for my tastes so thats why i went with a 1 1/2" now
