Default What are these red loops?

Anyone? Seems odd they would sit reducing the ground clearance.. they look like tow hooks

They are tie downs for towing on a trailer. Had those bolted on my 6gt3. They look similar or is Rennline. Non issue with clearance. Mike

Those just mean that previous owner used the car the right way.

Enjoy it!

Exactly! Rennline tow hooks for taking car to the track! Should have a set on the front jack point as well for easy and effortless tie down. Mine have them as well.

My car has them. Important to have when you tie down to a trailer. It's not ideal to torque down on the wheels or anything related to the suspension; it could mess up your alignment. These are great to have.
