I switched tires from 205/60/15 to 195/55/15.
1. Those of you who lowered your car, how far off the ground are the centers of the torsion bar caps? 2. What is the correct "rake" or ride height from front to rear? 3. Where is the best place to take measurements? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer3.gif) |

I try to set it so the tie rods are parallel to the ground with the car loaded. 2. Irrelevant. Do a corner balance of the car instead. 3. See 1. and 2. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/popcorn[1].gif) |
