Anyone running 20's + V6 springs?Crazy95Z 03-12-2005, 03:59 PM Hey guys, I just got my set of 20's in! :D Hopefully, I'll be able to get the Nitto 555 (245/35/Zr20) tires put on either today or monday. I was just wondering if anyone here has a V8 car and has used v6 springs in the front and rear yet while running a set of 20's? SkillZ25 03-12-2005, 08:15 PM why would you do that? Crazy95Z 03-14-2005, 03:02 AM V6 springs in the front is a cheaper way to launch the car better. Search for a few threads if you want to read about it. Plus, I don't really want my car looking like a 4x4 when the 20's go on and I'll be to poor the get my gfx now... zx1216 03-14-2005, 01:37 PM If your worried about launching the car why did you get 20's? With the tiny sidewall traction is going to be hard to get. I think you would be better off going with the elbach pro kit. Munson 03-14-2005, 09:57 PM lmao show us a pic of those 20's Crazy95Z 03-15-2005, 11:08 PM Well sry, no pics yet. The car is still at the bodyshop. I will be running a set of Nitto 555r on the stock salad shooters when I want to race. I want the v6 springs for that purpose and as an added bonus, the car sitting lower won't make it look like a 4x4 with the 20's on. I did plan on buying the drag launch spring kit but right now, a free set of v6 springs is about the only thing I can afford at the moment. SkillZ25 03-16-2005, 03:58 PM wont there be any adverse affects due to running v6 springs? JungleMan 03-18-2005, 05:46 PM wont there be any adverse affects due to running v6 springs? Probably handling-wise but from the looks of it he's building a drag car so it won't matter...:) Munson 03-19-2005, 02:14 AM Probably handling-wise but from the looks of it he's building a drag car so it won't matter...:) a drag car my freaking butt hole why would he put 20's on it with v6 srpings for better launches!!!!! lol! Bawls 03-20-2005, 09:07 PM I had v6 springs on the bird since I bought it, previous owner did it. Worst thing I've ever had to deal with. Every speed bump be prepared to bottom out.

LED undercar kit... purge LIGHT (lol)... what's left, LED exhaust tips? Mad tight yo! Crazy95Z 03-24-2005, 01:03 AM Euro lights... 20s... LED undercar kit... purge LIGHT (lol)... what's left, LED exhaust tips? Mad tight yo! ..says the guy with SS badges on his Z/28... Look, I'm not trying to get in a pissing contest here. I just wanted to find out how much v6 springs lower the front-end to determine if it would even be possible to use a set for now. You like what you've done to your car and I like what I've done with mine. Leave it at that. Spinner 03-25-2005, 11:10 AM Impossible to say. Get V8 springs. Lowering springs if you want. V6 springs are junk in the front of a v8 f body ssmando 03-30-2005, 11:10 PM why r u guys hatin, i have 20s and i have no problem smokin gts stock z28s and trans ams. i must admit that the ride is ruff, i already popped a tire in a pot hole, but i get compliments all day... my baby (http://members.cardomain.com/ssmando) :bow: :bow: :bow: | ||
