Had to give someone a hand going to the cash and carry picking up a load of drinks and other goodies which weight my car down quite a bit

just wondering if anyone drives a car this slamed, how is the handling?

looked cool and the rear felt much more planted to the ground, deff wont be stripping out the rear now (20xe btw)



was quite amazed it doesnt scrub or anything like that

mine isnt far off that.
i have the front on the last thread of fk coilovers and the adjusters removed at the back(really short rear springs that came in the coilover kit )
the handling is good and it hardly scrubs

I drove a car which was slammed today. I didn't like it because it hit the ground making me think I had ripped the bumpers apart Luckily it was the exhaust...

Felt more planted because you're carrying so much weight, doubt its because its lower than usual.

i would have mine that low if i could drive it, but sump would be sitting on the floor that low, the xe's sump is lower than the bumper, and also my exhaust center box is only a few mm off the floor
