Oh to shed some weight from the car and fit weak springs and thin front wheels. I could knock seconds off. Very Happy
But at least with them chunky fronts you stand half a chance of stopping in a hurry in the wet though Dave.....main reason I got rid of the skinnies on the Charger when I bought it

You must have those torsion bars torqued up to clear those front arches especialy when hard cornering.
I didnt know you could adjust them
So how do you adjust the torsion bars

There's a 3/4" bolt under and in the middle of the lower control arm. Wind it in to raise the front, wind it out to lower it.

They also actually effect the rear wheels as well funny enough.
If you raise the front right ride height it does not seem to go up much. But if you then look at the left rear you will see that it has gone down a bit.
So actually it is rather tricky to get just right. The best way is to discard the FSM as Adam calles it and just measure some point on the wheel or tyre to the arch at all 4 corners every adjustment you make until you get what you want all around.

Mine is lowered slighty all round and has 245/60/15 out front and 295/50/15 out back with no problems (except when i get a flat and then rip the muffler off cause the spare is smaller
) I could get bigger in the rear if i wanted,in fact my hoosiers are bigger
