I am old(45) and I never liked the jacked up Joe Dirt look. My brothers had the L60, M50's on their Roadrunners and Dusters. I always admired the stock Trans Am or Corvette look. The Baldwin Motion Car is going to get polyglas tires with L60's on the back and I won't like it but that was what was correct. Its amazing so many people just go gagga for that look.

We probably have 10000 variations of what looks right on these cars. Thats pretty interesting that a Turbo Buick can have so many sought after looks.

love the way the T looks AWESOME!!
 
I find there's a difference between a car being SLAMMED and a car having a nice stance. Just lowering it for the sake of enjoying the spark show as you go across the intersection to me seems dumb. However, a car with a nice stance is something I really like.

The bottom line though, it's your car, you do what you want.

Speaking of stance, what'd you do to get this stance? How much is it lowered? Wheel and tire size? Very nice looking car... IMO of course.

Looks fantastic with those wheels and the polished centers!! ;)
 
Thanks I love the hotchkis springs and bilsteins. Its getting to be my daily driver I like it so much. I have stock a-arms so if you like the height my wheel and tire info is in the sig.
 
what's so wrong with lowering the center of gravity? These cars are like a drunk pig at 100+ with stock suspension. After I did moog drop springs, bushings, and bilstein shocks, the car drove just like my old iroc. I love how the car drives and I haven't even got an alignment or installed the front swaybar yet. The front doesn't push forward and it takes a lot of effort to get the rear to come around now. The car is glued to the road at 100+ now. It's like driving a box at 100mph;)Exactly what I was looking for. Currently the car sits level. I'm hoping my end result with wheels will have a slight rake in the rear. I've decided to go with 18s. There's more to driving that going straight. What's more fun than being able to chase down a speeding vette on the interstate? Well, I guess there is ONE more thing that's more fun than that:rolleyes:
