would lowering cause issues with slicks?

[xTHExBOSSx46]

im thinking about buying these......http://www.americanmuscle.com/bbk-specificsprings-7904v8.html

 

and i also want to get slicks for when i go to the track. depending on the size of the slicks and whatnot will lowering the car be an issue? or should i leave it at stock height ?

 

with those springs it would be about a 1.5 inch drop. thanks for the help.

depends on how tall you want to go..they grow in the center on the big end,and you have to make sure you have clearance for the growth. etc.

i watched rhett ruin a pair of slicks at d42. tire expanded and got sliced by a screw stickin out.

lol thanks

 

it is possible i suppose. but like rob said youd have to make sure theres enough clearance under that fender well. im betting you could put a 15 inch wheel on the back with a slick that would fit under there. the height of the slick would balance out the wheel size difference in the front/back.

dont be a rhett

 

 

but how tall of a tire are you wanting to run?

[xTHExBOSSx46]

im not exactly sure yet. odds are im gunna leave it alone and not lower it. cause i figured it could cause an issue depending on how tall of tire. ill research it more.

Rhett was running a 29.5" tall tire IIRC the slick got destroyed LOL

I run slicks on my car at the track and it sits really low. But honestly i cant tell you what size tire it is

[99BlownYellowGT]

I will take a look at the size and let you know

28" tall should be fine...
