with the 225-40-18's you have added a half inch of fender gap, as well as lowered the car 1/2 inch. i'd try to find a larger sidewall tire before messing w/ springs. you'll be able to safely lower the car 1 inch by using springs right now. I don't suggest much more because of clearance issues w/ the front air dam.2001 Arctic White Firebird<br />T-Tops, 3.42 rear gear stock<br />Mods:K&N Air Filter,Whisper Air Induction Lid, maf screen removed, raised air box, Kumho Ecsta 712 255-50-ZR16 tires, BMR stb<br />Mods not installed yet: FTRA, SLP Lsd/Differential cover<br />Near Future Mods: HPP3, GMMG 3\" Exhaust , 1LE Swaybars, Transgo Shift Kit, MSD-DIS-4 w/ Accel Coil-Packs, Turquoise Blue Neon Underbody Kit, BMR Adj.

I agree with Mr. Javert, but a 1 inch drop wasn't enough for me. I went with sprint springs because they're cheaper and eibach didn't make em 2 yrs. ago when I got my car lowered. The sprints lowered the sh__t out of my car! I also have 18" wheels on my ride.

255-35-18 kumhos with one 225-40-18(haven't replaced it yet)
They WILL scrape on steep driveways if you don't go in at a slant.
Yep. Part #3200. They've settled a little more now. More like 2"-front. 2.5-2.75"-rear(got subs)<b>99 Camaro Z28 A4</b><br />R.I.P. 00 Firebird 3.8<br />14.89 @ 90, 2.03 60\'
