Default How low is too low?

Hey everyone, I was looking at some springs to lower my teg with, their Goldline springs and they give a 2.5 inch drop. I'm riding on 14" steelies and I will be for a while, is this going to be too low or will it work just fine, Oh I realize I will need a camber kit!! Thanks -Ryan-

First off...Goldline sucks d**k.....their spring is way too soft. If you want to go low....H&R race springs are coo....about 2.5in drop and settles around 2.75 to 3in. I used to have them with 16's and it was extremely low. I scraped my header and exhaust a few times...but i love the slammed look. I see you have a 4-1 header...and with an extreme drop you're going to scrape the header for sure. However I think with 14's it'll lood coo...probably a 1 to 1 1/2 finger gap between the fenders. Oh and you're going to need shocks pretty quick since it's gonnna go out pretty quick with that drop. Post pics when you're done! Good luck!

How long do you think the stock shocks will last with this setup? I really don't care whatr kind of ride I'm getting from them, I got a meet to go to and I want my car slammed. I leave for school on the 7th and the car will sit in the garage while i'm their, then later I will sell these springs and buy my GCs and Koni yellows. Thanks -Ryan-
