What is the widest tire you can fit on stock height, AND lowered 1.4"

vogtlands are better springs since they are a fairly commonly used OE company. SSC will go lower, but they're gonna ride more rough.

you don't really want to hear my opinion about what you should do, though.

Yea ride qualit is a plus , especially in MN, as the winters destroy our roads.. Most people just order from Vogtlands, or is there a good distributor/vendor on the site here?

GR-2's which are pretty much...Stock strut replacements. If I were to do it again, I'd go Excel-G which are the new GR-2s, apparently those are a bit better, or balls to the wall, AGX. And that's only if you want to stick with KYB.
 
Yea Ive been searching for the Vogtland 959220 ( 04+ ) and nothing seems real reputable so far.. Also Can I still use the stock struts or are they gonna go out pretty quick?
 


Thanks, I see alot of talk about spacers, shoty dog bones LCA bushings etc.. Is all this just a natural problem of lowering, or is this just common on cars that are really slammed down like 2.5-3 inches?

bigger than a 255 requires wide wheels to compensate for the width of the tires in order to use those tires properly? who do you know that does that? okay then.

Given that I'm a Gxp owner we can fit 275's on the stock wheel without a wider wheel...

your widest wheel is 8", you're still not making use of the 275 and would probably get more traction with a 255 unless you run really low tire pressures..

who the hell would run anything over a 255 on a grand prix unless you really needed the traction? that's just stupid and a waste of money.

MEEEEE !!!!!!!!!! with 275's and a 35 off set, it rubs with lots of weight in the back, but with finders rolled no rub

im also lowered on stock struts and the rim is 9 wide
