Contour Enthusiasts Group Archives Forums Modifications Suspension Dropped? I don't think so...

I had them Eibach installed like a year ago. Since then I tried my best to see the ground effects but failed to do so. First ppl told me it were gonna take some time for them springs to settle down so to say, then they told me that w/o them skirts no dropped looks were possible, so I put them skirts on, then Kremi came up with the notion that Zetecs were never gonna look really low b/c of the much lighter engine compared to Duratecs... Anyways, the car still doesn't look dropped to me.

What's your opinion about it? Also, what other springs are gonna lower the car better? Intrax? Are there any downside effects of lowering a car more?

Thanks in advance.

You got 17s right? With the 17s your car won't look dropped.

But with the other ppl's rides that got 17's - and they still look dropped...

i think he wants more, maybe something like this



and this

That's right, I want more.

what struts do u have on your car. cuz im running on the same springs. And i also have a zetec.

BAT's.

Eibachs Drop Good

Are you sure those aren't 215s? My 215/45s sit the same way in the back as yours, just a little more gap up front, maybe. But yes, overall, Eibachs are a good drop on an SVT. The car sits level and looks good, but up close you can see the difference between the wheel gaps and it's kind of annoying.
