I lowered my car with a Eibach pro-kit which I believe is 1.5 inch drop, and I'm rolling on 245/35/20's. I'm not sure what the stock tire is and I was curious how close to stock ride height I am. If anyone can chime in I'd appreciate it. THanks.

 

stock tires are 235/55/16

 

stock tire diameter is 25.6"

your tires are 26.7"

so you're tire gives you aprox .5" higher stance, which means with the 1.3-1.5" drop of the prokit...you are at about a 1" total drop

 

sweet. i'm installing pacesetter long tubes next week and sounds like i'll be OK with clearance.

 

The V8 models came with the 235/55-16 (26.2") tires standard, and the 245/50-16's (25.7) with the Z-rated option.

 

So it looks like according to Injuneer's info the larger wheels didn't raise me up by much at all

Hopefully it will be enough that I don't run into clearance issues.

 

Didn't the vast majority have the 245/50/16 wheels??? I only know of a few f-bodies that dont have the 245s (unless they have a SS/WS6 of course).

 

if I measure from the ground @ the center of the wheel to the lip of the fenders,front is 26 7/8 rear is 27 1/4 , does everyone have close to what I have?

 

The V8's all have 16x8" wheels, or 17x9" on the SS/WS6 coupes.

The base Z28 or Formula, and some T/A's (depending on the year) came with 235/55-16 tires. To get the 245/50-16's, you had to order RPO "QLC", which was for Z-rated tires. I don't know the actual production numbers. I was just pointing out that 245/50-16 tires were not "standard" on all V8's. What your car left the factory with will be shown on the tire info sticker on the door, and shown on the build tag.
