Was thinking of buying the INGS kit...wondered if guys with INGS / SIMILAR kit here could kindly advise me the recommended height to lower my ride. My ride will be sitting on a set of 245/40/19-front and 275/35/19-rear.

EBS 10-24-2006, 06:03 AM If u are in singapore, hehehe anything less than 2 fingers will give u lots of headache esp u on 19" rims and , I assume, after mkt suspension. Our car park are not friendly to chio bodykit and low rides. Cheers White_X 10-24-2006, 08:48 AM yup I m from singapore..true enough car parks & humps here are really a big headache for those with big kits. but I would like to know what will the clearance height be after I fit up the Ings kit. really appreciate help from those with ings fitted. thaNks. EBS 10-24-2006, 09:33 AM I was on veilside, Ings even lower and kenna so bad until I change bodykit. Now on stock height with new kit (not as low as Ings). Good luck.

My ride will be sitting on a set of 245/40/19-front and 275/35/19-rear. tink its better u fix up ur kit then u look for the suspension.... then from there u can see how low the suspension will be when u fix it up... u might even need not change ur suspension...... but still have to change the shock to hardened the ride to prevent the kit from hitting the floor.... :) ngkenny 10-24-2006, 11:03 AM i am on ings kit....with suspension....lowered with 2 finger space...JUST nice...any lower and i will not be able to clear takashimaya carpark. *what fat rears you've got eh....275 :) * low_rider USED to be on 19"s with Ings kit..lowered as well but i think it was abt 2 finger space too. u can check with him coupe07 10-24-2006, 11:40 AM i am on ings kit....with suspension....lowered with 2 finger space...JUST nice...any lower and i will not be able to clear takashimaya carpark. *what fat rears you've got eh....275 :) * low_rider USED to be on 19"s with Ings kit..lowered as well but i think it was abt 2 finger space too. u can check with him hearsay he contemplating back to 19" liao and hearsay he letting go his original INGS kit for another kit....... any case, will get him to reply this thread.

Freestyle 11-07-2006, 05:37 AM Just a tip for low-car owners... if you're going to Bugis, exit by the BreadTalk exit and you shouldn't have any issues. Do NOT exit by the InterContinental Hotel exit... that is a deadly trap for many many lowered cars... morganoh 11-07-2006, 09:41 AM Everyone is talking about lowering their cars. But I guess I'm only crazy one who is Rising my Rx8. My car stock suspension gave me a clearance (between tire and fender) of 2 fingers infront and 1 finger at the rear. And so I was think of buying a thousand ++ dollors aftermarket suspension in order to Rise the car. Lucky I came over a product at AutoBac Bukit Batok. Its a Red rubber thing thats fit between in the middle of the spring. It cost only $90 per pair Now the spacing between my tire and fender is 3 fingers infront and 2 fingers at the rear. madmax_rx8 11-08-2006, 09:22 AM why do you want to keep the rear lower than the front... i thought it would be nicer if the front is lower than the back regards Kelvin Koh morganoh 11-08-2006, 11:57 AM why do you want to keep the rear lower than the front... i thought it would be nicer if the front is lower than the back regards Kelvin Koh Because the car front was originally higher than the Rear. I did ask around and someone told me that its because when we brake the front will dip forward and so its a need/must for the Front to be slightly higher than the rear. And so after adding the rubber spacer between the springs, the Front and Rear both becomes higher by 0.75inch |
