At first,gonna go as low as possible with out rubbing jus to see how it looks,rides. Will eventually find a height I'm happy with that doesn't rip bumpers,oil pans or what have you. And yes,16's with 205/50'sArro wrote:I am hoping to read enough reviews to tell me that the ride is gentle compared to the BC's on my other 2GN.
How low are you dropping it? Those look like 16's, yes?

Im not really worried about that. I put eibach sportlines on stock struts so bumps are not an issue for me. I did see the spring rates of these. Im trying to find the spring rates for the eibachs though to compare stiffness.NeonNick925 wrote:Just keep in mind they are only ride height adjustable. This is with the helper spring installed @ lowest setting. Another member on here took the helper spring out in the rear.akirony wrote:I may be sold on these now

Sent PayPal payment today for a Thermal R&D rear section. Soooo excited!! Got new tires installed today, 205/50/16 Achilles 2233. Thought that was the tire size I had already, turns out the original size was 225/45/16. With the new tires I haven't had an issue yet with rubbing without the spacers on front. Gonna put a few more miles on it then jack it up n check.

Not sure yet. I'll be getting 2 rear lips so I may play around with both styles n see what I like best. Just tracked the Thermal, it'll be here next tuesdayakirony wrote:Im sure it'll look sic. I love how my lip looks. Your cutting the tip holes out. Are you gonna paint the middle blk or fold it up like the srt guys? I folded but didnt like my $60 dual t-pipe showing so I let it back dwn and painted it blk.
It'll still be awhile til I get the rear lips,roof rack as my buddy has been busy with life. When he gets some free time is when I'll get it
Pic of the Thermal before it shipped
Took the tails out to silicone the gaskets as they were leaking water into the trunk
Finally got the specs of the Rota's when I had the tires changed.

Thermal is here and installed. Mopar Roof Rack has made it over the border from Canada and thru Customs. It is on it way to California from Illinois so hopefully tuesday it'll be here. Here are a few pics of the car as of late...
Will post pics of rack when it gets here and also once it's installed.
