That looks really good and it is of particular interest to me as I am also looking at fitting the Stance coilovers in a few months (C6 Z51 sways are going on this weekend). I may be in touch re settings etc!

I'm currently lowered on stock bolts but I would like to go a bit lower....

Wow pictures do not do wide bodies justice. Easy installation with my L5s. Car looks better then I could imagine ,tons of thumbs up on the way to work. Wide fenders are a game changer for sure.

Thread delivers.

How do you like the handling on the Stance setup?

I kinda felt my factory z51 to be garbage. Looking to really tighten the car up and get it a little lower (longer rear bolts, fronts removed right now).
