Default Question about Lowering my 04 GT...

I plan to get some SLP Longtube headers (and slp catted x-pipe) and I want to lower my GT using the Eibach Pro-Kit. Will that be too low for having LT headers?

Well, anytime you lower the car, expect some scrapes, but you wont be too bad as the pro kit only drops about and inch and a quarter. You could try some bullitt springs if you are really concerned.

If your roads are fairly smooth the Pro Kit will be fine. If your roads look like our roads in Duluth (our roads resemble roads in Baghdad) :angry2: you might want to go with the Bullitt kit like I did. I chose the Bullitt kit because I will be installing SLP long tubes this winter.

Roads arent bad, I go on no dirt roads. Only thing is 2 small speed bumps at work in the garage but I can avoid them.

the pro-kits should be fine for your LT's.

You know you want them. :laughing1 I think im going to order me some lowering springs this friday. Either going to get some Steeda Sports or Eibach Pro Kit. I can get the prokit from a guy who never installed them for $180 shipped. Waiting for a quote for the steedas. Any advice on which is better? btw I have 18x9 and 18x10 wheels...265 rubber up front and 295 out back. For clearance issues.
