X 2...uh maybe 3. It'* springtime and I'm wanting to get my drop on.

Upgrading to 18'* and with a 1.7" drop that'll look sweet.

is an inch really that noticable? I mean this might sound stupid, but an inch when i look on a ruler isn't that big, lol... anyone have a picture of what it looks like dropped an inch? I mean i wouldnt want it that much, specially living in New York, the pot hole state, but if I purchased them, I would want them to be noticed

Just a word of caution on dropping too low.
An inch is big in relative terms.
I bottom out now on steep ramps and some driveways. I would never go more than an inch and even then I would combine it with at least a 10% spring rate increase.

I dropped my Firebird one inch many years ago. It'* noticeable and the tires rub on high speed dips.
