hey guys, really wanna put the drop on now, but i live in new york where the roads are as bad as they get pot hole wise, wanted to know if you guys could post what kind of drop you are on, and A. can you make it over speed bumps lol? B. how did they handle in the snow? Im specifically interested in swift and works springs.

thanks

 

Are you kidding? I drive between Queens and Brooklyn and you couldn't pay me to drop my car.

 

yea figured, but the swift springs and works springs imo arn't dropped too much

 

I have Cobb springs and drove all winter through snow, crappy PA roads, and perhaps the worst section of road in NY, the dreaded Eastern part of rt 86 in the Southern Tier...all without issue.

 

I drive my car year round (on Swift Springs). And I have a front lip that puts me 3in off the deck. Still can get around great in the snow (AS tires).

 

NY? Hell no

 

I don't even think about taking my car there

 

I would never drive my car in or around NYC, especially in a lowered car with low profile tires.

 

I have swift springs with (real) do-luck lip---bottom of lip is like 3-4 inches off ground. Drove it in snow ext., just gotta be a little carefull goin up and down ramps----i have no issues yet

 

Eibach springs are about as low of a drop you want to go for rough roads. I got away with it through 90% of the winter then the front rubber lip got pealed off on a frost heaved section of driveway that was too steep without going at an angle. Course there was traffic and I had to go faster than I wanted and sure enough I basically rammed the car into the ground... I was pissed. Without the Aero kit you can get away with a bit more but witht the Aero kit you have 5.5" front clearance and around 4.25" with the Eibach. Just have to drive carefully is the main thing.

 

That's why I'm saving up to buy some Megan's Coilovers.

Drop it in the summer and raise it back up in the winter

 

You should get Firestone's lifetime alignment deal, sounds like it'll be worth it for you.
