Lowering is pathetic in this game

What’s with the lowering of cars in this game it’s ridiculous.
It’s not that I’m asking for fully stanced but when the lowest you can go in the game is higher than standard it’s pathetic.
Here’s some examples
Forza lowered

We definitely need more lowering kits

Please use the Suggestions Hub for requesting changes to FH5’s suspension model and options.

This is far from a suggestion this is literally me pointing out something that affects a lot of cars in this game.
It’s like pointing out the Mercedes 190E evolutions rear wing that won’t be fixed either due to it effecting peoples tunes. How? The standard downforce in fh5 is ridiculously low compared to any other Forza game rendering this car absolutely useless to have a decent tune or use competitively. This is a catastrophic failure to represent this car as anything other than useless and if I was the manufacturer I’d revoke the license for it, therefore a game breaking issue so should be fixed.
Mugen too probably would pull the plug if they saw PGG’s using there name on Kaminari products for the CR-X and actually don’t even have a Mugen front bumper at all for this car in the game so should either relabel the front as a Forza bumper or remodel it. This is misrepresentation of the company and there products and therefore a lawsuit waiting to happen as is in breach of duty owed to Mugen.
At this point we’re not complaining we’re helping avoid legal problems for both Forza development companies.

Here’s my suggestion for PGG’s, hire a few game modders.
10 mins and the average modder could sort any of the problems people are complaining about, even dropping in more accurate models of cars, could be sorted in a day or 2 and would probably leave less new bugs in the game after doing so than the current development team, because at this point the game takes far too long to load, crashes more and just feels stale.
Just me ranting on but hopefully FH6 will be different(who am I kidding)

Yep, a lot of cars need more lowering ability and also track extensions. They presumably don’t get them because of clipping issues (tires sticking through the fenders). Which is something that should have been thought about from the start. It’s really not a new issue but is now pulling like a red line through the whole franchise as way too many cars are just copy and pastes from earlier titles that barely got touched to address such glaring issues.

Btw, nice to see that I’m not the only one who’s still mad about how they handled (or actually didn’t) the MB 190E Evo issue.

Why didn’t you use the drift suspension in your Forza screenshots like what’s shown in the reality pictures?

You see, the Drift-Suspension only really affects steering angle. The height and alignment can be achieved on race and offroad suspension, too. I also assume that OP alr lowered the shown cars via the Tuning menu to their lowest setting.

Check for yourself the drift suspension for the R32 GTR skyline barely moves just cambers more (tilts the tops of the wheels inwards)

I guess its dependent on the vehicle, I have some that are slammed pretty low.

Here is another example. You’re not going to get this low without notching the frame so I would consider this pretty low.

It is vehicle dependent. The 64 and 57 will get pretty low too.

4 examples out of 700 cars in game really doesn’t address the issue though, does it?

The drift and race suspensions have the all the same settings, just the defaults are different.
