Why are you thinking about raising it back up? Ground clearance problems? Tires rubbing in wheel wells?


Modshack -- car looks great, but to see the tire / fender gap and also ground clearance we need pics of the other side in the sun not in the shade

Granted this is Steeda's 1" drop. But it should be the same

WOW Intervention is that the roush wing? Thats the wing I want to get!!! How do the side pieces mount for that wing? Looks bada$$ my friend!!

I'm still on the fence, but I have been thinking about raising it up due to an issue I have been having with my magnaflow catback. It hits on the axle driver side every once in a while. I think the extra half inch as stupid as it sounds would make it not hit anymore. OFF TOPIC-I should also mention that this is my second catback from magnaflow on this car, and this one has been custom modified by cutting it in half and adding more height to go over the rear. Untouched it was literally a 1/4 inch away from the top of the rear. This should be a warning that if you have magnaflows catback on the '11 and your car is lowered it IS hitting. You dont hear it while driving, but if you get under the car and look, you can see where its rubbing. Magnaflow refuses to take any stance on there being a problem but I personally know 3 people who have the same issue. Magnaflow is like the only one who is not using a extra hump over the rear (ie. Borla, etc.). So learn from my mistake please lol...if you want the magnaflow catback and you are gonna lower your car don't get it. Sorry for the rant.

Btw- the one inch drop looks killer too!!

Heres mine after the 1 inch drop. They are the FRPP P springs.







These are the best shots I could get with the sun.

As a matter fact Steve, i just got the wheels today, the tires are mounted but still need to install them on the car. We just got our first snow storm around here in the East. Want to wash them before putting them on the car.

Good stuff Dan. The only thing I'm not crazy about is the white FRPP center caps. I'd be taking a set of the black pony caps from the Brembo wheels and swapping them out.

You beat me to it, that's exactly what i was going to do. Not too crazy about the FR center caps either, for the price you pay these wheels, i was hoping for something different. And you know how much these center caps go for ! $60 a piece....they are very good quality though, but still.....

The center caps came with the wheels.

If I get these I'll be using the pony center caps from the stock wheels

Yeah, Steve was right, i went with 19"all around and 9's front and 10's back.
Can't wait to put them on the car, if it would just get a bit warmer so i could wash them outside.

Agreed, black and silver Brembo pony FTW. When I saw the wheels with the FR center cap I cringed.
