What did you do to your GT350 today?

I'd go with something else. Here are what 6GRs did to my calipers
Was this just due to track debris getting caught between the calipers and the wheels? How tight is the clearance on them? I always liked how well the calipers filled the wheels on those, but maybe this is why.

My last setup on my GT500 had very little in the way of caliper to spoke clearance and never saw any issues on the street.

I have the lmr svr. Correct offset and plenty of room. Much much cheaper price also.

I like to disassemble things.
The last GT500's had more barrel clearance than the GT350.

They look great from a visual point of view. How do you like them from a ride/performance point of view? I’m considering getting a set of lowering springs for my car and just trying to figure out what ones to go with.

As far as lowering and looks l like the eibachs. They do ride really nice also but I wish they had more spring rate.

Frpp springs are pretty good but I just don't like rear spring rates. They are too soft and floaty until you start pushing the car and than becomes firmer.

Steeda comp springs are all around bad ass springs. No body roll at all. They do ride firmer from all the springs above and drop is basically same as the frpp.

I went with eibachs because I wanted the car to be nice and low. Dont expect the car to handle like stock with the eibachs. Is just too low and not enough spring rate.

I'm just a sucker for the concave of the 7 spoke 6GR wheels as they're close to my old wheels from my GT500.

This is a great synopsis of the available springs. Any input on BMR options? I was leaning towards the FRPP bars and springs combo, but not huge on the "floaty" comments.

Those are cool.. would like to hear about the sub install when your done. Ease of installation, sounds etc..

Thanks
It’s a RF P300-12 powered sub. It’s been in for a few hours and I’m not impressed. Odd because the reviews in Amazon are quite good (4.6 out of 5; 1,073 reviews).

I’m already mulling what to do next.

To me the FP springs have excellent rates (I could use a little less drop - it is 0.75" when fully settled). Add a set a lightweight 19" wheels in R spec with good 30 profile tires and you got yourself an awesome package. I added the stiffer R sway bar to mine as well for a little more rotation.
