Bought it from Phastek. Its the BR Racing coilover kit. They work for SS and above. Everything fit perfect. Had a few issues on the install because it was the first time for this car. Did one side first which took hours. Then once we figured it out, the other side took an hour for front and back.

Damn, that's low. Looks good. How much did you lower it? I'm waiting on my wheels to come in, but I'm only going .75 in front and 1 inch in the rear as I'm already sitting pretty flush.

No rubbing. After the install we didn't really quite know how low the car would be so I set it at the lowest setting which was really low and still no rubbing....at low speeds. But it was too low for me. We actually raised the car up another half inch to get it at this height. Car rides well with the coilovers, you just have to adjust the settings on them to your driving liking.

From the 2018 stock height, the full drop came to 1.5" all around. I say that because the 2018 is lower than the 2017 out of the factory.

Nice. You going with any aftermarket wheels?

Btw, you got the best color.

You know what...you're right. We did get the best color. Not sure about the wheels. Haven't found one that I really like yet. Although, the stock ZL1 wheels are nice. It's a great set up. Still looking. Your car looks great man.

That looks perfect. If I could get that low and have the ability to raise it back up with the push of a button, I’d be all over it.

You can with the KW HLS. Coilovers with hydraulic lift built in it.

Only the early 2017s. Chevy switched to the updated Springs in early 2017. I think it’s cars built after 4/2017 have the newer springs.
