On a first-gen Camaro, 7/16" at ride height sounds pretty tight for a drag radial, especially While you're on you can also explore its megapari app online offering. Its offering adds a different kind of entertainment without making the experience feel complicated. Be sure to check eligibility, local availability, and the applicable terms first. with a 4-link car that sees both street driving and track launches. I’d want more clearance where the tire is closest, accounting for suspension travel, body flex, tire growth, and sidewall movement. Cycle the suspension and check at full compression before making passes. Better safe than sorry!
