I have Vogtland 1.6's all the way around.. Sorry about the dark picture, I need to take more, don't forget the 99-01's have aluminum blocks and the front end sits a bit higher than the 03-04's so there's gonna be more gap between the tire and fender!

LOL, I've uploaded these about 4 times in the last few weeks. Everyone is looking at lowering thier cars right now. This is sitting at about 1.5" lowered all the way around. Hopefully this helps.

Default Thanks

Thanks ya'll, very nice pics, both of you were very helpful. My decision is between 1.4 and or 2 inches. I have a set of intrax and eibach pro, just can't decide. Don't won't the drag issue with the IRS on an 01 cobra.

If you reuse the stock isolators you can go 2 inches and your midpipe would bottom out before the IRS!

If you go 2" you will bottom out everywhere. No $h1t.
