Photo Quiz - is that cav lowered?

Post by Paul »

Well, see that pic.. My front is very (it always was) very low. Is it poss it is lowered? I know V6s are heavier and front usually sits lower, but is my particular Cav standard?

My guess yes and by 35mm... mines on 25mm drop and doesn't look that low

check the springs for any markings?

My old red v6 was lowered -25mm on eibach springs and the gap was almost the same as that one, it also had 16's fitted.
