    Looks, lower center of gravity, and potentially less body roll if you go with the aftermarket springs. If you opt for the spacers as well, you get a wider track. These last three components “could” improve handling performance significantly if done correctly.

    Although I have “track prepped” several cars and done a combination of all the above, I have never messed with the suspension on a Ferrari.

    Sweet. Do you know how many millimeters lower you are and have you encountered more scrapes?

    Did you end up lowering you 488? Did you do the video? What are the stock alignment specs for a 488GTB? Thanks

    I ended up selling the 488 without lowering it.

    Great looking car! On the Novitec, how much did you lower from stock ride height?
