wL<3bass Posted March 30, 2008 Report Share Posted March 30, 2008 Anyone know what or where i can find out on how low i can drop my car. or how much clearance there has to be from the ground to car? Some states differ, I would call the state police office and ask them, thats how I asked about the nitrous for my dad's gto.

wL<3bass Posted March 30, 2008 Report Share Posted March 30, 2008 (edited) Yeah if no one knows ill probably call monday. Btw i live in maryland.(to anyone who might know the law) I live in WV. If any Class A (passenger) vehicle, any Class E truck with a manufacturer's rating or registered gross vehicle weight of 18,000 pounds or less, or any Class M (multipurpose) vehicle has been altered in any manner that would reduce the effectiveness of its bumpers or suspension or render the vehicle dangerous in the event of a single vehicle accident or a collision with another vehicle, it may not be operated on any highway in this State. edit: That's what it says, I would still contact a local police station or state police to get clarification.

LSN2meBoom916 Posted March 30, 2008 Report Share Posted March 30, 2008 (edited) look up your state vihicle penal codes. here in california the headlights must be 20" form the ground and no part of the vehicle may be lower the the rim 22" from ground to center of headlight In cali...which you are last I checked just like me....it was a fix it ticket....so now I have coilovers. Check with ur local HIGHWAY PATROL, it's their dealio. The DMV here in cali says "no part of vehicle or frame lower than the lowest part of the wheel rim" (I.E. SCRAPING) and yet the CHP says 22" to center of headlight....I would check w/ the Highway guys cuz THEY'RE the ones that will be writing the ticket.
