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.

After ordering the springs I waited a bit because they were on back order. However they were worth the wait. I was afraid that the improved stance would compromise the ride, but it totally didn’t. The ride is improved and the look is perfect! Thank you Blake for the friendly service!

We got these (BBK) installed on our S Plaid was the best think we could have upgraded first. They feel so great when stopping on the big end on the tracks, So much light weight as well from the factory stock brakes. Thanks

This definitely helps cool down my drive unit quicker. I'm able to run a hot lap at the track, then a single cooldown lap to bring the drivetrain temperature back into the green. It was awesome seeing it cool down within a lap at Buttonwillow.

Updated 1 month review of Model Y luxury suspension upgrade. Totally pleased. Huge difference in the comfort of the ride.

Worked great, much less brake fade throughout my runs and lets me have more confidence in my stopping power as the heat builds.

Just what I needed to get rid of the adaptive suspension error now that I'm running an air suspension setup. Cheaper than the other option out there.

I installed these with the race pads.. The car is significantly better at stopping, the pedal feel is fantastic. One of the biggest addtional things I noticed was the decreased weight.. The wheels done thud as hard over bumps, and comfort setting now feels like actual comfort.. The wheels also...

Very quick installation and everyone was great with getting this setup and installed right away. Could feel the difference when driving the car and loved added this to my car. Makes the turns and feel more seamless and have better control as well. Thanks for everything!

I just had these bad boys installed on my Model S Plaid. It is INSANE how much stopping power these brakes provide. The stock brakes severely underperform in providing the stopping power needed to slow down the car. The solution to this problem is easily solved with UP's BBK. I want to give a big...
