Actually it will have very little measureable effect.

Now, if you only lowered one corner 1/2", now that would have a huge effect.

The center of gravity is so low on a 911, that a 1 degree increase in rake will transfer very little weight forward.


I have to explain this kind of stuff to people all the time. A lot of people think that corner balancing has something to with weight distribution. You really can't change weight distribution with corner balance. For example, can you imagine trying to get a 50/50 left/right weight distribution with-driver just from adjusting the ride height? the left side of the car would have to sit about 2 feet higher than the right side.
