Here they are installed!!

The FIRST2016 Camaro SS with lowering springs!!

The car rides great!! The car handles great, no rubbing issues, feels stiffer in turns, goes over bumps very well. The car only has 205 miles on the clock, we have not driven the car a whole lot with the springs so they might need to settle a bit more. The car will be driven this weekend and we will measure again at the start of the new week. We will keep everyone up to date one availability once they become available.













Details on springs to come. Install video to come as well!!

Looks pretty good. I would have concerns with rubbing with all these wide wheel set-up that push the tire out 18 - 20mm.

So I will have to try some too

That's why you want to drop it first and figure what wheel offset and tire/wheel combo will fit. I'd rather have less tire/wheel and have it tucked instead of having a tire that sticks out past the lip and your stuck there. Car will most always handle better with a lower stance, just the laws of loweredness. ha

Very nice, looks great! I'm wondering who will be the first to come out with some coilovers for the 6th gen. That 1.5 inch drop looks great and I believe it will look even better once the springs settle. Wondering how much the handling will be improved by this drop as well.

Not BMR or Eibach. They are a house brand, we work with a manufacturer that is willing to allow us to put our name on the set.

Should have an MRC car hopefully soon so we can get some testing to see how it will work.

Drove the car yesterday through some back roads and it was fun. I have taken those same roads on a motorcycle and the speed I was able to carry through the turn felt great and the car stuck.

Thanks for the info on the MRC set. Looking forward to see it.
