I have a 85 Regal limited. Im trying to find out what kind of lift kit I need to raise it so I can get some 20 inch rims on it. Tire size is 245/35/R20. Seems like nobody knows what Im talking about when I go to the autoshop. Can I get some help Thanks

</>what ever you do, DO NOT use those spring spacers. they are crap. they will kill ur ride, performance, and springs.





will a different spring rate give you the lift you need?





edit* you need to lift, to get 20s? if i can fit 20s on an s10, i would have thought you can fit them on your body style (G, i think). how much lift do you need?</>

how much are you looking to spend is the question? Most Drag shops should be able to help you out.This is from a drag car set up a pair of SouthSide
Machine lift bars with 5-1/2 degrees of pinion angle, all new bushings
and boxed in the upper control arms, new variable rate coil springs
designed for a ''79 Malibu StationWagon, and Gabriel shocks.
This isn''t my car, wish it was.</span>
