Hi Anthony,

This is from another forum member - he might be able to advise you :)

Steeda Magneride lowering springs with 1" drop. I don't think it looks lowered, I think it looks the way it should have come from the factory -

im 1 inch around, and you will learn to go slowly into certain areas, angled in others, definitely not the same as a full height car. but nothing drastic either.

The only thing I worry about is pulling into a parking spot with a cement block eyeing my front lip.

Why not go with the minimum drop springs? 0.5" all around
Idk tbh I feel like it’s not worth the money with such a small drop I’d have to see some more pictures of a car with them

I'm a little over an inch lower in the front and my front splitter clears the normal size parking stops.....just barely :)

Have steeda 1" magneride lowering springs all around on my car. Absolutely love the look and the feeling.

In the majority of the area I drive in, i don't have many issues and with the stock front fascia, I would think that you would have minimal to no clearance issues compared to stock

However, if you're thinking about modifying the front end (i.e adding a chin splitter, gt350/gt500 style front, etc), you will most likely have to adjust some of your angles of attack/plan your commute a bit. I do have to enter/exit my driveway at more of an angle now to avoid scraping and there are some entryways that I simply can not enter or exit at all without finding an alternate. I've already had to replace the chin spoiler from getting it caught and cracked in a dip that I didn't hit at the right angle leaving a small plaza that I frequented before with no issues.

Half an inch is enough to notice as you're getting into the car.

And this integrates into the SYNC monitor to resolve that concern:

See? There’s always something else to keep spending money on..... LOL
That's actually pretty sweet. Would be useful for different situations, like crowd control. :D

just back up when in doubt. thats what I do
Backing in is not always an option. But I'll gladly stop with plenty of space and use my rear camera to ensure I'm not sticking out.
