Espo +2" springs

i'm looking at the space between the top of the tire and wheel well. driveway looks sloped big time too.
 
What backspace do your wheels have? 15x8's? They look like they fill the wheelwell pretty good in your avatar pic.
 
Wheels on it are rollers, I haven't ordered my new ones yet, I have to get my 8.8 installed so I can measure for Wheels, it's being shortened 3 inches.
 
For starters, find some level ground for pics.
Looking at the car, the rear sits nice. Get some 60 series tires on the front, and drop it an 1". Go to go.

I can take some tonight she is in the garage so it's level, I just wanted that 70s drag car (stink bug) look.

I was talking to the original poster.
Jumping in on others posts only muddy's the water.

I hit the like button . I have 295 60 d15`s on my fastback , the caltrac monoleafs have settled to where the top of the tire is about 1'' up inside the fender well , looks great and darn near sits level. Just had to build/add a .044 shim for one side to stop it from barely rubbing on the inside fender well on pass. side.

Do you have some pics and part numbers? I would really like to get an idea of what my fastback will look like, my plans also call for the caltracs and their monoleafs.
 
if you want it to handle properly leave it at stock height or lower it a bit.
But you didn't want to hear that.
