Lowering Springs and Ride Height of ZL1 vs SS 1LE
Does anyone know if the ride height of a 2018 ZL1 (correct front springs unlike 2017) is any different than a 2018 SS 1LE?
I know they have the same FE4 suspension except for the springs which have different rates, but I'm wondering if the different springs also create different ride heights for the two cars. Reason is all the lowering springs seem to be advertise how much they will lower either the SS or SS 1LE, but not how much they will lower the ZL1. I'll be contacting Hyper Co regarding the YYZ springs and Down Sus RSR regarding their springs to see if I can find more specific answers.

That was exptremely helpful! According to this, if YYZ Springs lower a 1LE by 1” then they will lower a ZL1 by about 1/2” in the front and perhaps A full inch in the rear Now I’m waiting for an answer from RSR regarding their springs
