I'm getting an error on your photo so I can't see it good, but from what I can see it doesn't look as bad as some that I've seen. The gap should be pretty close to uniform all the way around the tire for it to look right too me. If it has a smaller or larger gap on top than it does on the left and right of the tire it looks very odd. IMO

Whenever you level the car out it looks like the rear is lower than the front. We all know that. I think it looks great op. some people like that defining muscle car stance. It all just depends on what springs you buy. I agree though, the butts do have a huge gap. It's nice to get rid of haha

I like the stance in the new shots.. But like the rims before they became black. Not that black looks bad just IMO played out. Everyone from a Civic to Vette's are getting blacked out rims.

I like the new stance. And the upgrades to get rid of the missed 3rd and wheel hop i'm sure make a huge difference driving around. Great job.

Oh and I used to live in Columbia, SC and went to the Charlotte Cars and Coffee by Mattie's Diner. Lots of nice 5.0's there. Have you ever been?

You should go. It's the first Saturday of the month at the N.C. Music Factory near the NW corner of downtown. Mattie's Diner has THE best milkshakes in the area and great diner food. The get together starts at around 8AM but people show up before to get good spots to group up. There are almost 400 spots in the lot and half the lot is usually filled up. Everyone is respectful of the rides and people usually are still there till around lunch. Hendrick usually brings some new fully loaded cars from Porsche and BMW. New exotics and classics and everything in between goes so it's always cool.

Also you should hook up with these guys..

http://www.meetup.com/ModernMuscleNC/

They do mountain drives, Kooks factory tours, car shows, C&C every month, all kinds of muscle car related stuff. Good people. You also get 15% off on Kooks custom headers and exhaust products as a member of the club. There are no club dues or anything.

Looks great. I haven't lowered mine yet, like I do with all my cars. But I will eventually.
