Suspension and tyres size

[daniel77]

Hi Guys
I am during restoration process. I  noticed that some pagodas look like where front end of the car is raised. It looks
ok but I prefer when front is slightly lower than rear. Do you know how to achieve the second more balanced look to me.
My tyre choice is 185/75R14 (?). Of course I don't want to spoil originality of overall design of the car but I want front to be
lower than rear. Maybe tyres matter or springs?

Regards

Daniel

Hello Daniel

These cars were designed with the front slightly raised, for whatever reason. For me it's part of their character, along with it's hard top roof line, i don't think any other cars compare
