I'm considering adding these shocks to my base C6, and was wondering if there are any CHEVY warranty issues and do these install without any modifications.

I have these shocks and I can't imagine any warranty problems other than with the shocks themselves. The only changes that you may want to do is to readjust the the ride height as everyone, including myself, has seen a drop of 1/2"-1" after the install.

Thanks for the reply. I don't know how to do that and will likely stay with the stock set-up as I only have 1500 miles on the car. I was hoping that I could just put these in and not have to do anything else.

I appreciate your help.

No, and you would not want to. The F55 shocks are superior to anything on the market for the intended application.
