What size tire are you running? Mine has eibach's and I finally got my new rims on , they dont scrub at all . Kinda wish i had a 40 or 45 series tire to fill in a little more

Sweet lookin ride...... Definately keep the 6th gen lights... Personally I really like our 6th gen headlights and tail lights, it sets ours apart from every other gen and a whole lot of other great GM products...

Just put the rears on first...

I like the look and am thinking about doing it to mine. Just not sure about our country roads and potholes.

Well here's how low it is now I didn't have time to update this thread yesterday I'll get more pics later today



And next to another monte at the store :p



Comparison of eBay springs vs Eibachs

Fronts


Rears


Overall I'm really happy with the drop, love it
Although it did drop a tad more in the rear than the front this time
I'm going to wait and see how much they settle if not then I'll just get some coil spring boosters for the rears
