You can't. You either use stiff springs, bottom out, or keep the car at a reasonable height.

 

i wish you could, but nope like a brick your going to roll indeed

 

lol alright then i guess ill find some thing that will have to work for me...thanks for the help...is 3" too low??

Depends. What is the suspension setup? What dampers, what spring rates, and what upper mounts are being used?

 

spring rates?? hmm... whats the rate for polyurethane??

 

well its all stock right now but i have about a grand to put in to her for now. and i want to start with suspension so thats why i came here i was looking for a good streetable setup that i could get about 3-3.5" drop with a good ride.

The measure of the hardness or the surface resistivity of a material is durometer.

You might want to look into something like a Tein Basic or Tein SS setup. They don't really go that low, but they offer a comfortable ride. You're going to have to make a trade-off with height vs. ride quality.

Keep in mind that ride quality is very subjective. I daily drive my car on 600 lbs-in springs and I enjoy it. Most other people complain that springs this stiff are unstreetable. What you really need to do is find a couple of buddies nearby with similar-weighted cars and modified suspensions, and ask them for a ride to see what different setups feel like to you.

Those sprint extreme springs have a 3" drop and they ride pretty good..I think it's due to the progressive rates..

 

i'm joking.. had the dd on bumpstops for a while.. it was fun
