ACR Lowered Ride Height for street

[wum]

For guys with ACRs, do you have an opinion on how much you can lower the ACR from the stock height and still be able to reasonably drive on the street? It looks like to remove much of the wheel gap, you'd need to lower the car by 2" which would seem to only leave 3-4" of clearance from the ground. I'm not sure that I'd want to drive a car on the street when it's that low. TIA.

I have my KWs at a soft setting and have not lowered the car.....I am not into lowered cars and even at stock height the splitter is quite low. I would measure it for you but my car is currently getting professionally detailed and new xpel.

Lower it too much and you will be eating the inner fender liners alive, and they are mega expensive to replace . Call Mark Jorgensen at Woodhouse Dodge/ WoodhouseMotorsports Division , 1-800-889-1893, cell 402-677-2935 , or [email protected] .

We have set up a ton of ACRs ( new and prior Gens) so he can give you the correct info.

OP, I got about 3.5" of ground clearance with the front splitter on. You just have to plan your trips and park very carefully. Try to avoid speed bump and going on curbs.

I wonder what options are out there in regard to air lift front suspensions, much like the Aventador, Huracan and other exotics have. Would be nice to 'lift' the nose a bit by toggling a switch inside the car for speed bumps, steep driveways, etc.
