    15 inch tire ride height

    Most ride height suggestions seem to be 4 4 1/2 front 4 1/2 to 5 rear. I’m running 15” 60 series tires that have a pretty tall sidewall. Doesn’t look like I can crank the springs down that far to reach those specs. Is there a different ride height for those tire setups?Am I missing something or should I cut back on the martinis? thanks

    Your ride height with those tires will be about an inch higher. Maybe 5" front 5.25" rear

    That’s what I thought thank you. I knew it wasn’t the martinis.

    The springs and shocks will probably settle a tad after you've been out for the first drive. I run 60 series 15" tires and have had no problem dropping it to 4-1/2". Maybe it's my older model Koni's, things may have changed with them since 2008.
