Huh? With my Stance GR+ I'm on collars up front (did the hole saw special to clear the upper arms and they're still smacking the wheel well lol), almost (almost) sitting on collars in rear and I can't even put my shoe under the car. If I removed collars and max low'd I'd literally be setting the car on the ground (or the wheel wells on the tires.. whichever came first). This is all while maintaining some pre-load (no spring droop at all).

No hate or anything, just curious. I've actually seen people say their Stances don't go low enough a lot and it's just kind of strange to me. Are you on true coilovers or the oem style setup?

I think the real issue (for me anyway) is wheel size on Z33's. Put 18's on an S-chassis and you can damn near tuck rim while still having more ground clearance than my car has while only tucking about an inch of tire all around.

Attatched some pics for reference. The last one (025) is about the wheel fitment I have while sitting static, the middle one and top one is about how much ground clearance I have while static.

I think I'll mostly be getting a set of PBM coilovers just to try something different. Been rocking this height and setup for three years now (on shitty Louisiana roads too).

my car is that low....i want it lower....

the difference between us is im running 0 camber in the rear for obvious reasons. this causes the rear to naturally want to sit higher.
i am running true style rears. no spring droop. my fronts still have room to go lower but then ill sit stinkbug.

HOTDAM: I'm running 18x10.5 +15 all around with a 25mm spacer in the rear.

And yeah I'd like to zero out my rear camber a lot more but I'd have to sacrifice wheel fitment because that would require me to remove the spacer. The car handles good enough for right now (my alignment is pretty ridiculous right at about -3.5 camber 0 toe front and around -4.9 camber rear at like .5 toe, this is after an alignment).

Once I step up to 19" wheels and width and offsets I want I'll probably be able to have a more "performance" minded alignment setting. Maybe I won't care about my ground clearance as much when I get to Cali but I have to high center my car literally every day here in Louisiana. It's getting pretty old to say the least. I'd still high center on 19's but at least I'd have better wheel fitment while doing it lol.

Pretty cool you want to go lower. People usually raise their car when they start going for pro type driving.
