Default DSE 3" drop leafs
Who has the 3" drop leafs on their 1st gen Camaro with pics...preferably minitubbed with an 18" wheel. I just need an idea about ride height...

Here is mine with the DSE 3" drop. The passenger side sits up off the wheel a little more.

They look great, but I think I need another 1-2" of drop...Quadralink it is I guess. I want the wheel well opening to cover a little of the tire...

That is my plan. If for nothing else, the ride quality.

DSE will flat out tell you that a lowering block may be needed if you want it super low. I would personally go with the quadralink for more reasons than ride height.

I don't think lowering blocks are in the mix...i'd rather do it right...
