Those who are bagged?

i have my grand am bagged with the easystreet kit from fmkustoms

im on 18"s with 235/40/18" rims i can roll the back when aired out but the front wont move untill about 20-25 psi

i took out the plastic liners but it still hits has anyone grinded down the lip on the pinch weld that is on the inner fender?

i just wanna make sure it will work and not cause problems before i do it thanks

i seen you on grandamgt so no one on there helpful enough for ya
i guess i will help ya out, the pinch wled you are refering to is part of the upper frame rail which is in the front of the car,, removing that lip is no big deal and will not hurt the structual integerity of the car
if you do that you will have to fab up and weld in a piece of metal on the bottom of the rail
in the rear that lip is the outer and inner wheel house again removing that lip no biggie will not hurt the car, same applies for the rear

just keep an eye out for my car when i modify the parts you are talking about

go grand am gt!!!!

i can drive as low as 20psi.. before i get stuck on the car anything below that.

But don't drive low. You'll break the air strut or blow out the strut. Like i did already. Had to buy a whole new set.

easystreet recommends min psi of 10psi anyways.

here my pic from a month ago


My pinch weld lip is beaten down, but it didn't make a difference.

if ya want i to lay on the rocker panels you would have to do some major modifications, like a complete tube chasis, up front, and the rear too, almost like a body drop and why would you want to cut car up that bad just to lay on the rocker panel??? and do you have enough money to do thiskind of major modifing
on my car iam running a 225/40/18 and it hangs up on the a-pillar, and the upper rail, i would have to cut away allot othe upper rail and make a mini tub in the a-pillar andfor what so my car lays on the rocker panel???
even for me its too much, but if you bank account is a bottomless pit then hell for you skys the limit

If his bank account was a bottomless pit he'd be driving a Lexus.
