How much did you lower and how fast have you had it?

ToyGuy, get a photo under heavy braking and I think you have it covered.

We have lowered the cars that we had thru the shop. If done right it's not a problem.

Depends on customer preference. But close to stock is pretty good.

Hard to believe that a lowered RS doesn't rub. Haven't stock RS had problems with rubbing??
They do look good lowered

Looks great, but I usually don't like the car much if low at Sebring.
Will see how high mine sits and how it bounces.

Want to lower mine too... But worried about rubbing issues at high speeds and bumps. How many mm did you lower yours toyguy? 10mm?

Would never lower my GT3. It is already too low as is, and very bouncy too.

Wow that look aggressive. Although that car doesn't really need to be lowered. OEM height is already good.
Also what is the legal tint level authorized in Arizona? Every exotic cars I see for sell there has extremely dark tint. In my state that would be illegal and you wouldn't pass inspection

To just lower the car on the stock springs makes little sense as the ride quality would disappear. We lowered the cars we had here with a new spring package. Actually improving ride quality as well as performance.

The car is all the way down in the front and there isn't much adjustment in the front. The rear is only down about 1/4in. It also has more camber.
