Yeah, it's a 44mm offset, at least it's written there. But I think when I'll drive over some holes, the tires are gonna rob on the inner side of the fender....

They shouldn't rub. But it also depends on teh type of tire too. Some 275 tires are wider than others so maybe that's why it looks that way. I didn't have a problem w/ mine even before rolling the fenders and I was lower than you.

hmm, I have Nittos 555. I think I'll roll the fenders just to be on the safe side...

John, how low are you, and how do you go so low??

Coil over setup. 4" up or down from stk height. I may go stupid low on the way up to Race Wars next month for giggles but I gotta watch my clamps on the y-pipe if I do. Mostly though I ride @ 2" below stk height.

Vadim, did you get that cutout problem fixed.

@John, can you please gimme some links to your setup and how much that costs. Coil overs are kewl!!!

Jack, thanks for asking. My car is at the garage right now. They centered my exhaust and fixed the cutout, but I still need that thingie http://www.fbodyeurope.org/board/viewtopic.php?t=4729 .

Sam Strano is where I got my coil overs from along w/ the custom revalved bilsteins and shorter piston valve. Call them up they'll be glad to help you in your needs. I mirrored my shock setup after Roy's but I went a little further w/ the spring rates than he did but it's almost identical in damping and such.

If you call they'll ask you if you know Roy or Silas. They are real good people and friendly as ever and know their stuff.

I plan to buy Roy's old setup if he lets me. His new setup is 10X better.

What he do? Go LG on us? Hey the setup that he's running isn't no joke either so don't sleep. Besides I've got every trick in the book when it comes to the suspension so it's probably safe to say I'm ok and can still hang w/ the best out on the road today.

Yes my friend, he went LG on us. The real deal holyfield!

He'll I'd do that too and their K-member if I was in the dirt for over a yr. Along w/ the GT2 front and rear setup. But I can't since I don't go to the dirt for another yr. DAMN!

I hear ya. I don't want to go, but I'd definitely reap the benefits if I did.

John, you got the Ground Control coil over kit with eibachs and revalved Bilsteins? Why didn't you take the Koni's 1 w adj. ?

Jack, what's Roy's actual setup? He plans on taking the coil over kit from LG? What's good there?? Just a coil over kit with eibachs and revalved bilsteins???

I don't even think they sell it anymore.

Why I didn't go for Konis? That's a good question but I've never had a problem w/ Bilsteins so I saw no need in switching. I'm not concerned w/ the adj the harshness of the ride and to me that's what Koni's offer in adjustability. Plus the extra scratch and I don't know if you can even rebuild Koni's like you can bilsteins.

LG's are a real coil over setup vs the GC rear being a perch but I prefer it over LG's anyway just based on price alone. Alot of fast cars us GC equipment in solo X and the like and it's proven. Bang for the buck is my thing. But that would suck if LG stop making his kits because they are nice.

I didn't see it on their site.

their site is down for the moment, but it was there under suspension. you just have to scroll down a lil.

@John,

I thought that if you like adjusting your height, you might like to adjust your shocks too...

I thought you can rebuild every shock, you think it might be different with adjustable ones?

Yeah I like adjusting the height. The ride stays the same unless I go too low and then the shocks don't dampen as well. But I don't go that low anymore w/ me LT's.

John, how low is too low for the shocks?
Sam told me that 2" is already kinda too low...

If you think about upgrading your suspension let me know!
