Just wanted to post a quick question. How much is a good ammount to lower a Cutlass Supreme to make it look good? By good ammount, I mean how much to make it look sporty, and not like a pavement scraping lowrider.

the front is lowered 1.8" with Intrax springs and the rear is a custom monoleaf built that lowered the car 3.5"

 

The front just sat lower originally and thats as far as it could go i guess..the rear had alot more space to be lowered so I did it, it looks really good and even.

personally I'd say 1.5"to2", will make a noticable difference in look and handling but not a big compromise for ride, I plan on doing this upgrade this summer

Custom monoleaf i got made up in toronto by a spring shop and then installed for $400 (CDN).

Hey airbe5car, Can you post the information about that shop please? I'm from ottawa so it wouldn't be too bad of a trip to save some cash! Thanks

Are you kidding me? Every W body i've ever seen, the rear is lower than the front. Even on both of mine.

no...the front just couldnt be lowered more b/c of the wheels...there was just more room to lower the rear more than the front...

 

bake82---this is all I could find online about the spring shop, but there is a number and a map for info. They were really good to me, I drove up from ohio and they got me in despite a ton of other work to do.

The 4x4 look has got to go though.

 

Damn, that wheel gap is huge, is that stock?

 

Well, what i said before about every w-body being lower in back than in the front, is because thats how many of the cars are around here.

Pretty close to stock. I pulled the aux springs and switched to KYB's so that might have raised it 1/4-1/2", but it still sat like a 4x4 before.

88-89's I've noticed sit a lot taller in the rear than 90+.

 

The 94 convertible does sit lower in the rear. The TGP is pretty even front and rear.
