    The handling version of the mustang is lowered with stiffer springs. It will not get as good weight transfer as a stock GT and run slower 60 ft times with the same tires and power. It is a trade off.

            It costs me roughly $800 to properly lower my car and still ahve proper launching abilities. No where near worth it in my opnion.

            To properly lower a RWD car, at mine you need
            • Adjustable Lower Control Arms w/ relocation brackets
            • Adjustable Upper control arm
            • Adjustable panhard bar
            • And new springs
            And as a domestic, I think I am speaking for Maddie as well here. We like our cars a little higher.

                    Honestly the lowering argument is stupid though. You could've been like "Your car would look better lowered, and depending on how you lowered it, corner better as well." and left it as that... No need for this drawn out back and forth stuff when they both obviously don't care about lowering their cars.

                    He could've just as easily went into your thread when you got here and been like "Run 13s."

                          I would have not argued back if it wasn't for the immature "killing babies" joke.

                          I definitely agree if done the right way, it can be win-win. However, us V8'ers rather spend money on power not suspension usually.

                              Yeah I think it's a VW inside joke. Obviously something funny in one place will not be funny in all places.

                              this is true...but he can easily go low...i cant EASILY run 13's
                              And going low will sacrifice SOME launching ability. I'd argue the trade off is worth it, BUT Kevin doesn't want to lower it right now, so it's damn easy to drop it (the argument not the car! ).

                                O i'm agreeing...im not saying drop everything and do it..but it would make his car look rediculous especially since his color rocks
