Hey just wondering what i can do to raise my lude off the ground (1995)... Right now i have lowering springs and kyb agx's....


coilovers? or are there springs that are just higher?

 

take some weight out of the car

 

not relaly possible.....


Plus i have a front lip on my car...

any othe rideas

 

buy you some coilovers.

 

Put your stock setup back on.

Love my Teins.

 

dont have them anymore...

would stock springs be good?


or are there springs that even raise the car

 

What springs do you have? Are you talking about going higher than stock or just back to stock? I know lots of ppl that drive in winter (up here in Canada with lotsa snow) with HR sports & Koni Yellows through winter. Just don't go slamming into a snow bank head first and you'll be ok.

Me personally, I go back to stock suspension for winter.

 

yea bt i don't have the stock suspension any more.. so Im lookin for a alternative


just to go back to a respectable height so i dont damge my lip

I will sell you mine. Stock. Complete with uppers. Sitting in the garage since I replaced them with TEINS.

 

how much

i dont really want to change the whole suspension cause i just put new ones on and i dont have the cash to keep changin em


I thik ill jst take my chances sitting low

 

TO be honest, I would have went with a Coilover system to begin with. You wouldnt have run into this problem. Look into investing into a Coilover system. Hope you can figure out your problem.

Just get a set of winter tires and get them in a really high profile. My summers are the stock (98) tires of 205-50-16s, and I'm ordering winter 205-60-16s, its not a lot, but 1/2 inch will help a ton if you're cruising in snow and trying not to float.

 

Just drive it in the winter. Those springs are only -35/30mm. I did without a problem.

exactly what i was just going to suggest..

 

I drove THAT car in Rochester, NY winters for 4 years. (((('-_-)

The first 2 winters (99-00, 00-01) at stock height, and raced winter SCCA TSD Road Rally, and then the rest lowered. No prob.

 

alright so ill just take off the lip for the winter

thanks erik


btw: why rn't u responding to my pms... r they broken?

 

Yeah, pulling your lip for the winter is probably the most economical option. You might be able to gain a half inch to an inch of clearance by using larger diameter winter tires - but it will throw your speedo off some.

And if you were to go to an adjustable suspension, not only would it cost money to buy & install it, but you'd need to get an alignment every time you raise or lower it so you don't chew up your tires.

 

coilovers. they are a good call.

 

buy a beater and dont drive the lude in the winter

 

snow shoes work too!
