Lowered C7
I've been on this forum for quite some time now looking for a lowered C7 with aftermarket wheels. In the past, there were a lot of great looking C6's that were lowered and easy to find in this forum. I may have missed the lowered C7's out there. If you have a lowered C7, can you post some pictures of the car. I'm trying to get an idea of how good the new stingrays will look with that stance. Thanks.

When I first got it. This is lowered all the way on stock bolts.
I need to take some new pictures now that it's got the stinger stripe, splitter and skirts.

That looks good lowered. I've never been a fan of white corvettes, but the new C7 in white looks amazing

Keep those pictures coming. Anyone out there use aftermarket bolts that can get the vehicle a bit lower?

I really like the "slammed" look but I am afraid I would tear the bottom right off my car with the crappy roads in my area. They are heaved so bad it's like miles of speed bumps!

It looks nice even lower, but I too am concerned about it stock and blowing something out, let alone making it even lower! This is going to be a daily driver for me, though, so some sacrifices I suppose will have to be made.

Wow. The red stingray from procharger is sleek looking. WCC bolts make the car pretty low compared to the stock bolts turned all the way down

These are pretty cool. I wouldn't have thought of lowering the car until seeing these images.

With MRC
Am I right to assume that it's not recommended to lower the C7 if you have MRC?

Does not matter....why would Chevy give you the bolts and then have the mag system get screwed up if you did it?
