    Not sure you can go much lower than that and not get stuck/scrape everywhere.

    Ride height looks great to me! C5's don't need much to look good.

    To those asking how come I did not go lower... Corvettes will never tuck tire, and this was adjusted on 100% stock suspension. For me to go lower I would need coilovers and it would be stupid because my tires are already flush with the fenders and you can't roll them out because the car is made of fiberglass.

    From what I have seen on the forums, when people get keyed it is white underneath. See the fibers:
