There's probably a thread on this already, but maybe not this specific. Plus, Momo's writing it, so its bound to get interesting! Question: With 275 Vredesteins on all 4 corners and KW Variant 1 coilovers, how low can I set my coilovers to without having to roll fenders, etc?!?! *Lower the better!
Well Rick should answer this one shouldn't he, that's his set up and didn't he just lower his Charger some more cause he couldn't take all the "4x4" insults you guys were throwing at him???
are you asking how low can V1's be set or how low can the car go?....i would be willing to bet that you can all the way down on 275's or at least pretty close to it no?...i was under the understanding that once you got bigger than 275 or 285 that you needed to start worrying about rubbage wheres leggy...i think he had a thread about this due to the size of his wheels/tires
I think Momo is looking for something like "7 threads showing on top on the rears and 10 threads showing on top on the fronts"? I think what you want to do is. 1) Measure from the top of the wheel well lip to the ground as it sits now. 2) Decide if you want a rake to the car. 3) Decide about how far you think you can drop it and still have it driveable. You have about 5.25" clearance on the front cowl right now. and you don't want to high center it over speed bumps or getting into the garage. 4) Decide on how low you want it visually. 3) and 4) may work out together. More likely 3) will be the main concern (it would be for me anyway). 5) allow for just a little bit of settle after the initial install? 1/4"? I have no idea. 6) Negotiate with the installer on how much the re-adjustment is going to cost you in a few weeks (I'd try for a case of premium beer. You might have to go to 2 cases. If you're still floating everything on the credit card then a Momo deluxe auto detail should do the trick).
You'll be fine with 20s. You don't need to worry about rubbing. Re-adjustment by me will cost you a case of premium beer, microbrew, not import crap like Beck's.
