I see this is a lowering thread;don't want to sound (stupid) but i haven't considered it till recently.
What is a conservative amount of drop-pending you want to stay with oem diameter tires & not overly aggressive offset's.
1", 1.5" ?? i
I know i will be able to have adjustments of front camber & caster then.
also i Drag-Race my car & don't want much(if any) rear camber.
Suggestion's would be appreciated.
Ty,joby

Perfect. Go to Socal Motorworks in Orange. Ask for Andy. He's open Saturday too (9-1pm), but appointment only.

They are really far lol I know I said over an hour, but theyre close to 2 hours away from me. So far I'm planning on calling socal motorworks, corner3garage, and Street faction tomorrow morning and asking around to see if they can do the work. If they cant ill probably call up specialty z. Just asking to hopefully speed up my process.

Are you on the facebook group? You may want to reach out to the Coachela Valley Z Club for shop recommendation. I'm sure someone there can point you to a good shop closer to your area. The job takes at least 6 hours to complete so I would plan for down time and travel arrangments. Good luck!

I know thats why I don't wanna drive too far out. No unfortunately I'm not on any social media at the moment.

Anyone know any low-friendly shops that can do tire mounting and wheel alignment near the Riverside area?
