Who here has the lowest Viper??

[Qualitywires.com]

I just got my springs back from Doug Levin, which he was kind enough to help me out on!!

I am getting them installed here shortly, but I was wondering who has the lowest settings? Any pics?

I want my Viper slammed! Sort of.

 

[Anthony - 98 GTS]

I have a 1" drop with the Eibach springs plus an additional 1/2" drop with the NW Engineering lowering caps for a total 1 1/2".

The most drop I have seen is SW's GTS with a 2" drop done by Archer Racing in Dallas. Looks great.

I hope to have pics in a couple of weeks.

I have Eibachs for 1" and with the Autoform front, I don't know if it would be driveable any lower. Check out this slammed Viper @ http://www.westcoastchoppers.com/
click on whips and then viper on the right hand corner on top!!

This is a tad low:

I got pretty regular bottoming before I had the car raised back up another 3/8" or so. With the 19" rims (which raise the ride height .55" on their own), the frame where it crosses the rear axle is about 5.5" off the ground. This is as low as it can go without bottoming those 345/19s in the rear.

The ACR suspension make the ride-height very easily adjustable.

SW, for you - "low" is standard equipment.

But, of course

Adam,
believe it or not, my viper was lower than these cars (slightly)- the back fenders were hanging over the edge of the tire. I loved the look but it was undriveable. I couldn't go anywhere with it. Anyone who drove with me could tell you. The rear was so low people said that you couldn't see any light from the bottom.

I recently had it raised up a bit and now it's better.

I would not recommend going so low (even though it looks great.)One inch is plenty.

SW's stable...

Holly $hit...I vote SW hero for the day!

 

[unclgreggy]

that maranello is awesome!

 

[GTS Dean]

sorry JP - that totally *****.

 

[Tom and Vipers]

I'd sure like to hear how much better they handle with 1 to 1.5 inch lowering.

That should really help out the inboard wheel loading....

However, the 3 3/4 clearance of a stock Viper is practically the limit here in SW PA. In FL you could run a LOT lower!

Jp, I love it...it looks awesome. I don't care what anyone says..that put a smile on my face!

I can resolve your rear wheel rubbing problem for you - Take the sheep out of the trunk mate!

I mean, what else would give you the motivation to try and catch the ACR? (Although I guess we could tie the sheep on that big stick and duct-tape it to your roof again).

Chuck, my car is about 1.75" lower than stock. I have raised it up a little but opted to lower it again due to how much better the lower center of gravity positively reacts to the "skin of the ball$ effect-o-meter coefficient" or something like that! Paolo

So your car in that picture is 1.75 inches lower?

Man what a bunch oof LOWLIFES!!!!!

 

[TOOOFST]

Those of you who like the stock ride height,might enjoy the mud drag competitions.I've heard past stories of owners wanting to lower but have driveway and local area clearance problems.You can clear just about everything if you hit it with a tire first!I haven't see much difference between in that lower facia edge in 15,000.miles.
