I need to know how low I can go and still be legal. I need to know if I need to get coilovers or stay with my Eibach springs.

 

14 inches, measured from mid bumper, front and back... not sure about sides, but I assume if front and back are straight its ok... you can dip the front an inch or two lower and not get pulled b/c the back is good just my 2 cents

 

I thaugt it was from the bottom of the frame where your bumper is monted on?

 

no, when we were out at ames one night we asked a cop about it, he said that it is from the top bar of the bumper like b speed said, im pretty sure thats it

 

turst me when i tell u it is from the most flat part of ur bumper...closest to the ground and it has to be 14 inches...i ahve been ticketed 6 times for altereed suspenision in my xtreme

 

sorry about the spelling....kinda sick and hands are numb

 

and if ur in a truck...and have a roll pan or no bumper whatsoever..they measure from ur frame where it wouold mount to ur boumper

 

It's 14" from the bottom of your bumper if you have an older vehicle that has an actual bumper bolted to it, like say my truck for instance. If you have a car with a bumper "skin", it's from the bottom line where the bumper beam would be, which is usually the most forward protruding spot in the skin.

 

wow 14 inches from the bottom most part of the bumper is crazy. If thats true theres alot of stock cars that are against the law, im pretty sure my car would be below 14 inches and it just has factory sport suspension.

 

its not 14 from the bottom of your bumper... I was told my a police officer that is is 14 from mid bumper (in a civic, right below where the headlights are)... someone go to the virginia website and find the law and codes and shit... I've been there before but it takes a while to find the spot and I don't care enough to do it for someone else, hahaha lol
