too low?
finally got all the airbags working and the car clean(er), the front will be modified to go a little lower but i think the back is maxed, only about 1/2" clearance
and i know the rear tires look dangerous, but when i air it up they sit flat

RE: too low?
Wow!! Looks really cool.
I wouldn't make it a hundred feet down the roads here in Canada before bottoming out a few times. With the pot-holes and sharp dips around these parts, I won't be changing the ride height of my Magnum very soon.

RE: too low?
Personally, I think it looks a little too low. Maybe up an inch or two? Or maybe it would look better that low with some larger-diameter wheels. Everyone else seems to like it, though. What the hell do I know?--I'm a 35 year old geezer.
Basically, if YOU like it, that's all that counts! But I guess it does help to have a little validation from your peers.

"Large diameter wheels". Man when did we get to an age when 19" wheels weren't big anymore?
I personally like the looks of it raised with the bags. (the second set of pics you posted for Tilt) Don't really understand why people bag them to drop to the ground. Seems like it'd be really hard to get in and out of to me. I've always liked your car undropped, sits great. Are you the one that filled in the exhaust cutout and did a custom downturn?

RE: too low?
In my personal opinion....those first photos look absolutely KILLER!! But maybe for show or parking.
The second set of photos would be more realistic for driving around.
Here in Alberta Canada, the winters really do a number on the roads and such. Pot-holes and heaves are very common. Driveway approaches are also pretty deep in many cases. So if a person could have the 'second photos look' for driving, and the 'first photos look' for parking....then you've got it!!
