2"drop on 20's

warock · Post by **warock** » Fri Sep 30, 2005 9:41 pm

im planning on a major change to my srt over the winter would a 2 inch drop and adding 20's along with a complete urethane bushing kit along wit hotchkiss sway bars be a good combo for handling?

I think louie is the lowest..... everyone else says its dan.... don't really know between the two.

dan is the lowest because he has bags. louie's on ipp's but i dont think hes the lowest. belleracr (which i rode in his '02 acr) has ipp's but isnt isnt as low because he doesnt have the side skirts obviously

cool id love to have the stage 3's but its not in the cards right now lol but once the car is payed off lol its game time

before i got on bags, it was close between me & louie. But back to the question, im not sure how much handling you'll have with 20s. I really don't think that is a good combo if you are looking at the handling aspect

thats a good point id probably be alot better off sticking with 17's and dropping it plus the other parts

LaidNeon · Post by **LaidNeon** » Fri Sep 30, 2005 11:18 pm

17s or 18s........but if you want handling man just buy some 20s like you want & keep your stockers with a nice set of rubber

well the rims i have arent the stockers but close they are 17x7 monteggii ff-5's those rims would be good for the daily driver part and i could put the 20's on for the shows

yes there is a reason why you won't ever see anything over an 18in wheel on a racecar.

LaidNeon · Post by **LaidNeon** » Sat Oct 01, 2005 2:52 am

actually what race is that where they race for 24 hours in vettes & vipers & stuff like that? I can't think of the name, but i know the rims are bigger than 18s & they are about 2" or less from the ground

yea those 20s are going to def. add alot of weight and take away from your performance, but if you are just gonna use them for shows, then no biggie.

my friend was going to put 20s on his neon but never did.

im not sure how low you could relaly go w/ wheels that big, but who knows....good luck doing it and cant wait to see pics!

warock · Post by **warock** » Sat Oct 01, 2005 5:28 am

soon as its done there will be so many pics lol people will be sic of seeing them

the sideskirts dont make my car any lower. im judging by the frame rail, which is a good inch lower than my sideskirt.

last time i checked i was lower than kevin who doesnt have sideskirts either.

im on ipp's.

I'm on IPP's and I'm right around 2 1/4" off the ground. Don't know how that compares to others but just thought I'd throw that in.

You were already the lowest even before kevin moved up north and his car is looowww. He had to raise the back up a bit because of the northern terrain was killing him.

Im gonna say Po12no is lower. He has customized rear air lift in the rear and one off strut bags in the front with custom struts mounts. Only pic without sideskirts is this. And this is b4 the new front bags and wheels.
