Giving my NEW 2024 C8 E-Ray the Proper Stance!

[@BrinkofSpeed]

Who has an E-Ray that needs lowering?

[@ButcherIsBlackrock]

no one

[@cardo1111]

Looks like a first-rate suspension shop, a car of that caliber deserves no less. l love that the owner is in the trenches turning wrenches, not sitting in the office all day bossing everyone else around. A humble guy who really knows his stuff. Good luck with the mod 👍🏽

[@ParagonPerformance]

We appreciate you willing to help with the R&D process so we can get these in clients hands faster! Now.. if anyone can help us get our own Eray we’d really appreciate it 😬

[@BrinkofSpeed]

@@ParagonPerformance No problem, thank you for this opportunity sir! 😊💪

[@stevedolan5065]

It looks good…hopefully the ride and handling are the same or better…! 👍🏻

[@Vetteman372]

You can tell that garage is a first class garage. that you can trust your car at. a lot of these garages in Virginia. You don't know what you're getting. If They even did what you wanted them to.

[@bossanova7462]

I give you credit for trying things on your new E-Ray that almost no one is doing. Your Corvette is very expensive and I don’t know if I would be doing this because I would be worried about everything not working out and running into more problems down the road and voiding your warranty. Good Luck 🍀

[@cgarnerspeed252]

It totally looks better lowered. It’s not as low as your old C8 but I like this one better

[@jonathanvieni4067]

Mike I’m not a big fan of the ERAY but I have to say your making this car grow on me.

[@BrinkofSpeed]

@@jonathanvieni4067 😊💪

[@robertcirilli6577]

That would never work in PA but it looks good.

[@mtxkidd2]

My c8 in there now getting lowered and wheel spacers from paragon, I’m picking it up Tuesday..thanx for posting this video

[@stephenr115]

Good update on your/my ERay (ha!). Glad you’re enjoying your vehicle. You should take a Fall trip up to Rocky Mountain National Park crossing divide and bring up 12,000 feet. Trail ridge Road is awesome my friend! Great content as you know in Colorado and heck might save yourself from bit of snow or ice!

Your next mod should be the kooks headers and cats like on CSP racing

Im 1 finger kinda guy personally.... 😂

[@sanders6277]

Never been interested in lowering my cars

[@lukewalker1051]

I stopped lowering street cars in my 30's after ruinging too many cars with harsher ride and less ground clearance. High heels for men. P.S. same with loud exhausts which only draw more attention from the police when on it and what's the point of owning a performance car if you don't use the power.

[@AnomalyB31]

Stance looks so much better without the atrocious old man wheel gap

[@fredjames73]

Looks good but I won’t be lowering my E-Ray. After some use give us an after action report on ride quality and front lift changes.

[@horsepowerjunkie]

Thanks!

[@msowerby]

Nicely done…love my Paragon/HyperCo springs on the Z06…ride is great but what a difference it makes with the aesthetics and especially with the right wheels/offset! 💯👍

[@amiller2121]

Nice video. To provide some feedback, I steongly dislike the background music when you or someone else is talking.

[@BrinkofSpeed]

@@amiller2121 Thank you, I had to have some music going because they had music going and I didn’t want KZbin to give me a copyright violation.

[@horsepowerjunkie]

Great Video..I love the stance.Are there any drawbacks to lowering the Eray.I read that the warrenty remains in effect.When pushed hard ,will it rub. anywhere? At speed does anything change? ? Is there any effect on the front wheel drive ? Can you give a ball park price on installation of the paragon kit on a 3LZ Eray with the ZER package with front lift ? Im in south FL.If i drive to u how long do you need the car for this install? Maybe make an little vacation ouy of it. Thanks,Steve

[@bspmotorsports9988]

It’s a day turn around.

[@tainoblanco]

I like that lowered more aggressive looking stance but I’m curious about how much clearance in inches you lose for the front lift to still be effective

[@dd9354]

I asked thus question before and the answer was the front lift works from where it's lowered. So in this case an inch and a half from the one inch lowered height.

[@tainoblanco]

@@dd9354 That’s what I thought. Thanks!

[@AnomalyB31]

My stingray is lowered and the front lift still works perfectly. I can clear anything I need to. It’s the best of both worlds.

[@v8behind]

Looks great Mike

[@williamapostolu5062]

will you be sacrificing much ride confort with stiffer springs. How to they feel compaired to the originals. love the new stance.

[@nrdemon1031]

Much better after an Altitude adjustment.

[@Texas_Clay]

Mike. Do you anticipate you’ll have to roll the fenders?

[@BrinkofSpeed]

@@Texas_Clay That’s not necessary at all. It’s not low enough to do that.

[@mueldaddy]

I’ve seen other videos where Paragon uses lowering collar’s on the Z06. In those cases are you saying the car didn’t have a front lift?

[@BrinkofSpeed]

@@mueldaddy This isn’t a Z06. It’s a totally different story with the E-Ray because of the AWD.

[@superchargederay]

Looks fantastic Mike. Nicely done as always with the video.

[@BrinkofSpeed]

@@superchargederay Thanks Stephen, I appreciate it! I can’t wait to see yours after it’s done!

[@joegotz1971]

Every car or truck i lowered did not ride as good as stock. I had a Saleen F-150 which had the lowering kit and it rode like crap. I even added adjustable shocks which helped a little. I will never lower a car agin nor will I buy a vehicle without adjustable shocks set up by the factory and can be adjusted by a switch. Especially here in NJ that has a lot of potholes and those damn manhole covers.

[@johnperkins6432]

Stance is much better!!

[@BrinkofSpeed]

@@johnperkins6432 I agree.

[@kerrybloxham7741]

Is your car warranty still good?

[@BrinkofSpeed]

It sure is.

[@prudhvirajg4056]

How much do they charge for doing that?

[@bspmotorsports9988]

We are $160 an hour and charge what the book time is. Every car is going to be different.

[@thiosemicarbizidebenzoylal2921]

Hold up. The springs on the ERAY are SOFTER and when compressed looks like there will be rubbing. Wouldnt you switch SPRINGS first and then lower? I dont know, but it seems intuitive?

[@BrinkofSpeed]

@@thiosemicarbizidebenzoylal2921 That’s exactly all we did. The springs are what lowered it. It’s the only way to lower a front lift E-Ray.
