    Just because a car is "slammed" doesnt mean shit for handling. My car isnt "slammed" but i bet i eat that thing alive where having proper suspension counts. Its all about matching spring weight with dampening and sway bars. With a suspension that low, you'd have to have insanely high spring rates,and super stiff shocks just to keep from bottoming out.. but then you loose almost all you suspension travel... which makes handling go to shit.

    I think its funny that people throw some shit on a car.. cheap coil-overs and "sport" shocks and suddenly think its some kind of handling monster (not directed at the 'teg, but half the ricers in general)


    Too low IMO, and the overly high offset of the wheels make it look like one of the many UAB "wide-body" cars where people left stock width wheels on it.....looks unfinished and cheap.
