  • How do you like it? Raised or Lowered?

    How do you like your Festiva? Raised or lowered? I think i'll start a POLL.

    I see lots of folks here lowering their Festiva's. Just a few raising them. So I was wondering how many of you folks liked them lowered, how many like them raised, or how many like them stock.
    I'll start:

    1)drddan - Raised
    2) ?

    I raised mine to keep from rubbing my tires and it looks TOUGH!!!!
    I like it!!!! I also go down some rough roads now and then, the extra ground clearance is much better.

      If I was to do anything, it would probably be raising. I hated going up/down sharp angles in the road in my Toronado, because I was afraid it would scrape. Usually it didn't, but I still winced before it every time. I like being able to go up the enormous hill to get to the Meijer where I work at whatever speed I am going, instead of slowing down to 10mph every time.

      I will say though, lowered cars of almost any kind look better than stock height, unless they are so low that the wheels have rubber bands for tires and/or are tucked up in the fenders.
