    Post them if you've got them. An adjusted suspension of only an inch or so really adds a nice touch to the aesthetics of the car, I love it :)

    Jeffrey had his done and added Novitec wheels. I did the same...but it was too low, so I am bringing it up slightly at FX performance today.

    Great shots. This needs to be in the "modern" section.


    Forza,

    Not being a fan of aftermarket wheels, those look absolutely stunning on your argento spider...very nice choice.

    Those are THE BEST aftermarket wheels I have seen on a 360. Congrats.

    Yes I have to say the wheels with the lowering sets the car off nicely. That's the best looking F360 spider I have ever seen. It's amazing what lowering your car with some nice rims will do for it. Forget all the aftermarket sideskirts, bumpers, etc... What this guy [Jeffrey] has done, is a classy touch.

    I love the lowered look. The silver 360 spider looks beautiful. It is amazing what a stock lowered car will do for exterior aesthetics. I think wheel gap on any sportscar is an eyesore. The Corvette C5 def. suffers from extreme wheel gap, its almost a 4 finger + gap in the rear wheel well.

    I think the biggest problem in lowering most cars is the negative handling effects it usually creates. It is very tough to get most cars to handle better than the oem factory specs w/out spending lots of $$$. I love the lowered look on Ferrari's but would be hesitant to lower & slightly give up some of the stock tuned handling benefits.

    could someone post the pic of the normal suspension level then a lowered one, i can't really see the difference but in real life i'm sure it's oblivious.

    Love the wheels on the 360 spider - nice touch. Lowering the car looks great, but won't it scratch on everything? My 355 and TR scratch the front spoiler on everythng and they aren't even lowered.

    Well I just got theb 360 spider back. With it lowered the way it was, the handling suffered and it was bouncy on certain freeways. Raised it a smidge...still wrong.

    At Jeffreys suggestion I to it to FX Performance in West L.A. and had Costa set the ride height to "European" or as the invoice says "Performance Setting" with his attention to load on each wheel. Then an alignment.

    It is so frickin' good I can't believe it. With the fat Novitechs wheels and the tweaks Costa did...it rocks. I am telling you this...if you do any changes of shocks or height adjustmemt it is worth getting it done right.

    The $540 I spent on this is the best money I have put into my car bar none. My thanks to Costa. No ****...I was wooping out loud on the road today on some twisties.

    Clearance after it is all said and done is fine. No difference I can detect.
