How High?

Does anyone know the actual height of both the GTS and Roadster (say with the hardtop on)? I am continually astounded at how much lower the roadster appears. Just curious.

Re: How High?

I was told by my Vipertech that the GTS are lower then the RT/10. I'm curious too b/c I just got the 19" Forgeline VR1's and i'm thinking about dropping the car with the pro eibach springs.

i am speaking from experience here, do NOT go with the eibachs. you really sacrifice the ride quality. the springs make your car bouncy, and if you hit a dip or something in the road, you bounce for a while afterwards. just my experience with them, and i know a few others agree....

Re: How High?

eibochs are a good idea, my ride sacrificed nothing. then again ive altered the alignment settings, used energy suspension mounts and delrin bushings as well. car rides like its on rails. also did the shock adjustment a full turn and a quarter to stiffen it all up.
