Lowered and Daily Driving?

09MB370Z · 05-22-2015, 09:27 AM

Driving lowered really isn't that big of a deal. The performance aspect would be stiffer springs rates and aid in your handling. Now if your are purely going for aesthetics than I have no back up for you except to go with an air suspension setup so that you can look pretty while parked and then lift it while you're driving around town.

I don't really notice a huge diff. I scraped in a few places before the Swifts but with them I take a little extra precaution so I rarely hit anywhere. I angle the car entering and leaving the parkade where I work and never scrape now. Before I got the hang of it I did scrape there a couple of times. The drop is a +++ for me IMO. No issues there.
Before the Swifts I thought the Sport wheels made my Z look like one of those ridiculous Donks. I got the Swifts 'cause I thought anything to change that would be well spent dollars.
