No, it's not lowered. It's actually higher than normal too since I have my winter tires on these rims (205/55/16). I should be getting my chrome 17's on next week:D

That explains the lessened wheel gap I was noticing.:thup: Looks nice, you'll have to post another pic when you get your new wheels.

actually the difference between 205-55-16 and 225-50-16 is very little (height difference should be around 0.5mm) The only thing I can think of is 93-95 (maybe it's 96) ride a little lower because in 96 or 97 they made the car higher...wheel gap is much more apparent in a 97 (and maybe 96 but I'm forgetting)

Yes, I put on the graphics. Those are are 17" Konig Monsoon rims. I'm hoping to have 235/40/17 tires on them. I'm getting the tires for free from a friend that works at a tire shop so it depends on what he can find. Not sure on the brand either.

I think you're right. If I remember correct, someone on PT did say that the 93-94 PGT's do ride at a lower height.

I don't know why, but everyone always asks me if it's lowered. To my knowledge, it isn't lowered. I'm the second owner but the springs and struts look stock to me:wtf:

I know, I guess it's just me but I could tell from looking at it that it wasn't lowered. Sorry:(

compare it to my car and you will swear it's lowered. Mine has about an extra inch of wheel gap.

93 was lower out of the box by about 3/4". Sheesh, I'd have thought everyone had that memorized by now!

I'd have to see a good side pic of your car...I guess mine is so low that I compare others to it and that's how I figure if they are or they aren't lowered.

I swear I seen that car at the U of M!! I see that in the back of GC. I don't know who it belongs but if you go to the U of M I'm the one with the marron SE probe that rolls around there too. I think I seen that car but not the driver.....ummm if so it's nice to know that there's more suited probes at the U :lol:

05/07/2002, 08:18 PM
there are a lot of green probe GTs. :p But I have been to the U of MN a lot. Where did you see it? I don't know where the back of GC is. I park at sanford hall (one of the *4* spots they have....peice of shit) or on the street around there. And one time I got stuck in the church street garage. That was fun. :rolleyes:

Oh theres a green probe there too huh? Well GC=General College otherwise the building is known as Appleby Hall. I see this car park at the meters and I have mine at the four hour meters behind the hospital. I believe this car goes to the U of M and if you go down.....the street with pizza hut on the corner and go down that road you'll find these two cars!! If this red one is it

MN Probe GT
05/07/2002, 09:24 PM
yeah, I know what GC is, I just don't know where it is. Sounds like it isn't me.

pcmmelite
05/07/2002, 10:28 PM
Entertainer, your right! I do park it behind GC somedays. At least I know I have a nice enough car to be distinguished and recognized:D It will probably be there this Friday too for all that want to see it! I usually get there around 7:45. I leave at around 10:00-11:00 A.M. MN Probe GT, GC is between the science classroom building and Frasier Hall. It is also across from the new Walter Library building.

If you are driving on University Ave., 15th Ave leads to Frasier, GC, and Walter. There are big gates on opposite sides of 15th with a sign of the U of M. I'm usually on the west bank, near Carlson. so look out for nice black probes!!

check this out:eek: Don't ask me how the hell I did this because I don't even remember what I did. I was just playing around with the color settings. The picture is of a probe on PT from Texas.
