You think 3.5 is too low for the street?.


Hmmm, I should probably measure my car before I speak, but yes, 3.5" seems a little sporty for the street, at least ones I have to take to get to the smooth ones I want to romp on. To a certain extent it sort of depends where on the car you're taking the measurement from but if you were talking front valance or any of the structural subframe....yikes. My chin spoiler in down there but it's flexible and has scars to show for it. If you consider a 200 lb driver and passenger, a little change in road elevation, hard cornering, and a little corresponding shock compression.....seems like it doesn't leave much? I run 550 lb/in springs in rear and 450 in front and still get some compression when I drive hard. -You've got me thinking though. I'll have to measure where my car is sitting when I get home tonight.
