Iīm a Buick newbie from Sweden, bought my LeSabre a few months ago and had it shipped to Sweden from Virginia Beach.

One previuos owner and 69k miles ainīt bad for a car turning 40 this year.

Some pics:

At the docks in Gothenburg, Sweden.

Earlier this week I bought, and mounted, a set of 20" Coys C5 rims (10" rear, 8.5" front) on 275/35 and 255/35 tires.

I havenīt had the time to lower it yet, but next week itīll probably sit at least 3" closer to the ground.

I have to agree with Jarrod on this car . It has a strong stance for a 4 door . I am not too sure if I would lower the car 3 inches . You would loose the factorys comfort ride the big Buicks are famous for .

I'd leave it to the other guys to lower thier cars and keep your '67 the way it came from the factory .

BUT it IS your Buick , do as you wish and enjoy !!:Brow: :Brow:

Everyone has a opinion huh ....:grin:

The car looks great! I say if you've already got 20's on it, you might as well lower it.

Iīm more and more into building/mounting an air-ride system during the winter so I can ride lower and smoother next season!

Very artistic shots there. Definitely wall-sized garage-hanger worthy.
