Cicio Performance Lowering Collars = PERFECT!
I am so pleased with the Cicio Performance front lowering collar results from my install today! We were able to achieve a full inch drop with the OEM coilovers for my front lift Z06. I originally ordered the Paragon front collars but realized they only offered a 3/8" drop which is barely noticeable (DM me if anyone wants to buy them, they are brand new). The good folks over at Cicio shipped the collars and they arrived in two days and the Cicio support team even corresponded with me on a Sunday! Now that is incredible customer service!
Next up is to find some spacers, especially for the rear! But overall ride height looks perfect and the ride quality is exactly as it was when it was a 4X4 :-)

I used them on my Stingray with no issues. Will probably get them for my Z06. I assume these also require cutting of the bump stops?

How are they doing that with cutting the bump stops? It was required with the Stingray collars. I don’t see how it wouldn’t have the same issues on the Z06.

The Paragon collars are 3/8” because you are supposed to use a spacer due to some cars having weld splatter and also due to the brake line being not long enough.

Why would a brake line affect lowering the car? Suspension compression is accounted for already?
OP I assume you had a full alignment? If not your toe will be off materially due to camber gain.

I believe he is referring to the brake line which connects to the hydraulic mechanism which lowers the front end. It sits lower in the strut so the brake line may be stretched, I'm sure there is a way to bend or manipulate the bracket to get a little more length.

Yeah then it's not a "brake line"... gotcha.
