Pictures of a lowered SHO?

Just springs work fine? Or do you need after market camber bolts or other items?

Front and rear camber and toe-in are affected.  Front camber is adjusted by rotating the front struts 180 degrees. Rear camber can be adjusted using aftermarket camber bolts or elongating the lower strut mounting slot. After getting the camber squared away, toe in will need to be adjusted.  I did all of the adjustments myself using a Quick Trick alignment tool

thats about what i suspected.
 
those of you lowered on H&R, in regards to the front, would I be able to get away with having 255/55/18 snow tires? this tire's diameter  is about 29.1 inches (half an inch taller than the stock diameter). I am thinking of lowering the sho before the fall, but I will be switching to winter wheels as well and I don't want to do so If the snow tires will rub in the front.
 
Man that will be really close to the outer fender, I would just hate to do all this to come to find out that I will need to buy new tires or revert back to stock height. I may just wait until next year, and then do it, that way it will give me more time to sell old tires and buy new ones if need be.
 
Here is my sho now with the rear h&r cut by 1" and new shoes

Thank you bpd, that will help. I will take measurements tomorrow and see what I can determine.

Stuntz, I admire those wheels so much. The car looks very sharp with them. Now that you are lowered more, how much clearance do you have, if you measure behind the front tire, from the body of the car to the ground, and in front of the rear tire?
