So I was working on the xf tonight when i kicked a can under the car. When I looked under it to get it I finally noticed just how low my car is, lol.
The pictures kinda suck due to the whole camera phone thing

This is a static drop on springs. Exactly 3.25" from the ground to the bottom of the front swaybar.

That is just wayyy to low for me..

 

Its about as low as i'll go for now. Fronts tuck about 1/4 from the lip of the wheel, on 215/35/18s in the front.
rears just as low, it only rubs at full lock so im ging to take of a bfh and massage the wheel wells a bit.
It doesnt clear speed bumps, or curbs, or guttered driveways but I like it.

When I get my new wheel setup I'll probably have to raise it a bit, or i'll just do a crazy fender pull front and rear and be done with it

 

Low is nice until you crack or rip a hole in the oil or transmission pan.

 

Every time you crack an oil pan, a VW gets its wings lol.

 

Im not automatic
and the swaybar sits lower than the oil pan by a decent amount.
Plus i dont drie this car places with crappy roads

 

Lets see some side shots of the car.

 

Once its ready I'll have full shots

 

Ever had roadkill stuck on your exhaust pipes cooking....mmmmm squirrel. I use to it on my Stang all the time.

 

I tend to avoid all objects on the road.
I actually plan my trip around the roads i know to avoid.
Its pretty bad when I can drive through downtown atlanta blind folded

 

LMAO YOU TOO!! I use to do this when I had my 86 SAAB Turbo....that **** was LOW. I got stuck on speed bumps all the time.
