Lift Kits on newer cars for larger wheels?? Is it needed?
Im just curious how much of a need exist for a 1-3" lift on newer cars for larger wheels like the 300c, lincon town cars, cadilac sts and cts, ect. Ive worked in a performance automotive warehouse as sales for 2 years and see a need for this. I also have cnc experience and some engineer buddies, if needed this is something i could do
Thanks - JR |

Re: Lift Kits on newer cars for larger wheels?? Is it needed?
I haven't really seen too many lifted late model cars. I went to school in florida and saw lift kits on pickups and old schools all the time but rarely on any cars made atfer 1990

Re: Lift Kits on newer cars for larger wheels?? Is it needed?
It depends how large of wheels your putting on. I don't think Honda people are puttting some big old nasty 24's on. There are spring spacer out there and have been around for a long time.

Most of us don't have enough torque to turn a wheel that big anyway

I’d get one just for the extra ground clearance! It makes hopping curbs a little safer.

Re: Lift Kits on newer cars for larger wheels?? Is it needed?
Raising a car would probably have negative effects on the handling. I couldnt see practically needing a wheel so big that you have to raise your car. Except for those ghetto cars.

Re: Lift Kits on newer cars for larger wheels?? Is it needed?
No thanks. Its really funny to see those cars before they get the wheels on them. They have like 15" wheels and the car is like 5' off the ground lol.
