Default Re: 50k mile Performance Suspension Upgrade. Need Input

I've written and erased 2 long winded responses. Keep it simple and inexpensive in the beginning. Cut the stock springs keeping them as cool as possible. Don't cut too much especially in the front. 1/2" of drop is about as far as you can go without rubbing (under heavy braking). Use the crash bolts in the front for additional camber. They should get you to -1.6 to -2 depending on the offset of your rims. Stay with the stock shocks in the beginning. When you lower the rear you'll need some camber correction. The lower you go the more you need. Camber arms if barely lowered, kmacs if real low. Forgestar finishes their rims to your specifications and are light. It takes a while to get them so even if they say 1 month plan for 3. I'm still using stock sways and desperately need an upgrade. Here's hoping Ground Control makes a boatload of parts!
