Finally got my Coils
I ordered some Coilovers back in April and they finally just came in. I've had these rims since March(I think) but didn't want to install them until my suspension came in
Suspension: Tanabe Sustec Pro 7
Rims: Work SC1's 19x10 and 19x11

Nice, drop it another 1.5 inches and it will be money! I think those 19's will come alive once you do. Good job.

Thanks mang! Once I do a little fender work I will drop it a little more. But since I drive it 3-4 times a week. I kinda don't wanna be too low.

Looks good and lower would look better!
Before you do fender work, have you tried to go lower? You tires look pretty "stretched" and your wheels should camber more the lower you go, right?

Why did it take so long for the coils to get there?

Looks good. Sometimes, like in your case, not being "dumped, slammed, stanced" looks good. I like it, well done.

agreed, the rear looks a little silly till you drop it. no need to stretch the tire if your fender is well above it.

I was going to drop it more, but I also want to fix camber. If I do fix the camber, it will definitely hit the fenders.

Thanks everyone. Ride quality is a little stiff compared to stock, but the thin and streched tires play a big factor. If I put the stock rims on, it'll ride close to stock smoothness
