he's at the same height as me cept my a$$ is dropped EVENLY with the front (his is too high)

and Igor plans on raising the front to match the back, so either he'll be around my height or a bit higher.

besides the fact that he's got 18's with give him an inch lift over mine.....

Bro, My car always looked like my signature. It didn't look like that at the track because I sold my suspension and put on those stock rims for the winter season

Looks great Igor!

A little bit of advice. Do not lower it almost as far as it will go, add 4 people, luggage, and I-95 under road construction. The tires must have hit inside the wheel wells about 10 times. Time to bring it up a 1/2" all around.

I adjusted to 2 front, 2 rear and ride is AWESOME....almost felt like stock w/ 18" wheels.

I will raise my front up about 1/4" - 1/2" at lunch today...It's already rubbing on sharp turns.

BTW- No More Wheel Hop
