Hello all, me again. I am planning on getting some 18's for my GT and am wondering which drop to install. Does anyone have any pics of their Vibe lowered on 18's they could post or e-mail to me? I have seen quite a few Matrices lowered but with the different body style it might not be the same...

C'mon people! No one has lowered their vibe????? I sense a consipracy...The only reason I want to know is the Vibe FX say's it has a 1.5' drop with the coil overs, but their is no way that is true. It has to be lower than that!! I measured from the center of my wheel to the top of the fender well and 1.5"s down still leaves about 2 inches of nasty-ness! Anyone, anyone.... anyone know...

Anyone, anyone.... anyone know...I believe the Vibe FX may look lower to you due to the added ground effects (skirts).. plus the stated 1.5" drop. That alone makes a big difference.

I just measured the gap from top of my tire to the bottom of the fender and it is under 3". The picture FX looks to have under a 1.5" gap, but it's really hard to tell from the pic since the tires and gap space are practically black.
