List your tire/rim combo as well as your suspension setup. just curious as to how much wheel gap you guys have. also, what is the height of the highest part of the wheelwell to the ground

 

I tried this basic idea a few weeks back in hopes of making an "apples to apples" gallery. Didn't have much luck: http://forums.maxima.org/showthread.php?t=292827

My drop on Progress/Illuminas and measurements to ground:

 

-1 finger gap front, -1.5 finger gap rear.
JIC coilovers.

Problems? Well if im going about 130+ on the freeway and go over a good nasty bridge I will have the occasional sparks from my turbo downpipe, who cares, it brings character

OT, but Dixit, is it me or is there a big pile of bird poop on your hood and a piece of paper stuck in your driver side fog light hole??

 

He has hood pins for the CF hood, and IIRC, he lost the fogs and what you are seeing is the IC piping..

 

damn I feel like such a

 

Man......

I'm on 17x7.5 rims with oem potenzas (replacing this summer) and eibach springs with tokico blues. Front = 25 1/2 " ; Back = 26 ".

 

17x8........235/45-17

What's a gap?
24 1/4 all around

JIC's

 

I put Maxspeeds on my 2K2 with stock struts. My front is 27" and rear is 27".
I do not seem to have gotten 1.6"F 1.3"R like I should have. In fact, before the springs "settled", I had 26-7/8" up front. It is settling higher!
One more thing. I just got brand new stock size tires (Kumho KH11), so the added tread will add to height.

 

Last I checked:
Stock rims and tires, 17x7 225/50/17
fr:26 3/4" rr:27"
Springs are only about 1 week old.

 

this seems like a good thread destined to be archived and a useful tool for those who want to drop their rides, but have no clue as to where to start. keep posting up your setups!

 

I need to measure it....

 

my set up is stock shocks and struts teins s-tech stock 17 with 235/45 no wheels gap at all.

 

Tein H-Tech with KYB GR2 running on 18" Axis Seven Mod, Maxis on rear two wheels. I have a finger and half gap all the way around.

 

25" all around.
1 inch gap.
215/60-16.
chopped maxspeeds.
bout to go lower and get a bigger wheel gap cause the next tires i am aiming for are 215/50-16 or 215/55-16

 

16" SE's
24" height all around (you jic guys need to go lower )
gap is even up front and roughly 1-1.5 finger tuck in the rear, but looks even from far away.

edit: i'm an idiot...totally forgot....this is on 3rd gen cattman coilovers.

 

The turbo downpipe is already only 2.5" off the ground. Any lower and I wont be able to drive the car without it falling off.

My y-pipe is to close for comfort.

 

Front: 24.5 inches from ground with 1/2 finger gap
Back: 25 inches from ground with little less than a finger gap

I'm on axis wsm 2's with toser coilovers

 

ground clearance is also affected by your tire sidewall thickness.

i'm on sprints with stock wheels

 

take some daytime pic sof ur car man!...i got to see a bette rpic of ur drop...PLZZZZ

PS...i have about 1.5 ginfer gap up front..and less then one in the rear...gc's and tok...18" 225/40...
