Lowering?

Quick question, when lowering your car, how much lower is .75?

Call me crazy but that would be 3/4"? I guess that's what you're asking, right?

Generally, the amount of drop is measured in inches. So a .75 is a 3 /4" drop. A very conservative drop at that. Usually this doesn't require any other serious suspension changes...

Thanks

My fiance has been wanting to lower his car. I bought him the Altezzas and my friend just bought him a new intake for his birthday and I just purchased the lowering springs for him so I wanted to make sure they'd drop his car a little bit. =)

Thanks, I wasn't sure how they measure it (inches or what) when it comes to lowering. But I think 3/4 is perfect

You bought your fiance the altezzas and lowering springs? Plus your friend bought him the intake? Hot damn! Can you convince my fiance to do that for me? And maybe my friends too if it's not too much to ask...

heh, I can't make her do anything. I can tell her (It'll make the man happy) but I can't force her. Plus, I rather get stuff for the car then get something that wont last awhile and costs a fortune anyway, plus I know once I get a protege of my own, Imma be doing the same thing (and he'd get me stuff for my ride)
