You can't really slam the Mustangs either. The exhaust drags all over the place. To add to that they look like *** slammed.

people who like to "slam" cars know nothing about suspension geometry...

the car is about as low as you can go without damn near complely changing everything about the suspension... i dont want the tires tucked, i think it looks retarded on everything... yes everything.... plus this is my only ride so i have to be able to drive it everywhere... over speedbumps and up driveways... also if you have ever looked under a mustang you would see that theres a lot of **** that hangs down... the midpipe on my car would scrape on some speedbumps at stock...


i posted on here because there are some other people who like mustangs as well as hondas, and some have shown intrest in my car...


also the front should settle another 1/4 or so and once i change the front struts as well, from gas charged to non charged, it will lower a TAD bit more... and itll be about perfect to me... even gap around the whole tire
