Q: Will lowering my car reduce my ground clearance and what happens if I scrape my car?

Yes, your ground clearance will be adjusted by equivalent lowering value of the lowering spring you select. We address this question in greater depth above within the subject “which version should I get?”. Cars of factory height and of all shapes and sizes unfortunately sometimes encounter situations in which they scrape and/or incur damage. In such cases the cost of that damage is the responsibility of the driver and not of the vehicle or aftermarket part manufacturer. When choosing to lower your vehicle, we encourage you to be aware that you are reducing ground clearance and therefore increasing your chances of impact. Drivers of previously low cars tend to understand this inherently, however if this topic is new to you please take consideration of all facts before making your decision.

Tesla Model Y Billet Adjustable Rear Camber Arm Set
Great complement to my Model Y's coil overs and sway bar set up. Significant handling improvements overall. Best of all, these camber arms give me the peace of mind of not worrying about uneven tire wear after dropping my ride height 1 inch. Car looks and feels great on the road.

This bumper is awesome for my Cybertruck! It’s built tough with A36 steel, looks killer with the black powder coat, and the optional 11-inch LED lights are super bright. It’s great for off-roading with a better approach angle and hi-lift jack points. Installation was easy with the video guide,...

Phenomenal brake pads. As my daily grocery getter and occasional spirited driving, yes these may be overkill for some but with how fast the M3P is you can't go wrong with better stopping power. I've had these pads since April and would highly recommend to anyone that does occasional track days...

Outstanding option if you don't have enough money for or don't need the ceramic kit. Over a half dozen track days with weekend driving and they still work great on originally installed pads.
