    This car does look fantastic, but it must bottom out everywhere they go. Also, if he's got his front wheels turned as they're backing out of a driveway with even a slight incline, those front tires look like they're going to scrape against the fender...

    My F430 is stock ride hight (which is admittedly high) and I'm hitting bottom all over the place and even while driving on some of the mountain roads in the bay-area

    Will lowering void your factory warranty? I have a year left.

    My dealer said that it could void anything related to suspension etc. So I kept mine stock ride height.

    My dealer did my last 2 before I picked them up new. Not one mention of voided warranty because I didn't change out equipment on them.

    Yes mine will do it too, but if something goes wrong maybe FNA will say screw you. I just decided for the warranty to run out and now if I decide to keep it then I will but to euro ride height.

    My factory warranty has expired as of last week. I have been thinking of having it lowered slightly.

    Euro ride height sounds about right for me.

    Hey ZIPP, are those stock rims? They look fantastic with the paintwork. BTW, did you swap out the springs and shocks or was that the stockies lowered?

    Mine is very low too and has rear 650lb springs and front 450 springs,500lb front springs are too hard !!!
    Or maybe your streets are very smooth.

    So they are stock springs adjusted lower? Pardon me for my ignorance, I'm really new to this.

    Did you add spacers? How did that affect the road holding of the 430?

    That looks about right for me Texasz. How much did you lower front and rear and did you use factory springs?

    Please show another pic or so from the side.
