welcome! I remember you from jdmc, nice gs!

When you say Too soft your ride height you mean your so low and your springs are so soft that when u hit a bump it rubs? Sorry I'm new to suspension modification always been an engine guy.

Thanks man!

So as far as coilovers, these coilovers are GREAT! They strongly reduce the boat feel from the car...and they still ride like oem...they ride amazing. These are the extreme low version, so they can get WAY low.

because I have 11 +8's in the back, and I'm pretty fitted, I need a stiffer spring set up. The way coilovers are, the shock is valved to the spring weight. So since currently I'm valved at 10k springs, I cannot just buy 18k springs...i need to have them revalved. It's actually cheaper for me to just sell these and buy brand new ones.

okay that makes sense.now i have to ask the obvious question and pardon if comes off wrong but, you seem like you know your way around suspension. Didnt you know before you ordered them that having them valved at 10k was going to be to soft for how low you desired to be? and if your too low for those spring rates what would be perfect ride height.i would buy them off you, i just want to make sure I can go as low as i want on them without having the same problem your having.i would be rolling on stock 17's and not having it low until i getmy wheels

Honestly, I should have known better and done some research. My supra runs 10k in the front and 7k in the rear.

The GS comes with 10k and 8k from the factory at BC...so I figured stiffening it up to 10K in the rear would work out flawlessly. I was wrong to think so. These cars are much heavier than my supra, and my fitment is MUCH more aggressive, something I wasn't really anticipating at first...but just sort of happened. The original plan was to run these Eurolines I have at home...
which are far less aggressive. But when I put them on, I hated the look, so I got these.

It's not that I am too low for the spring rates; My wheel fitment is far too aggressive for the ride height i'm currently at. Does that make sense?

gsbs300

one you answer this last question everything will make sense?what exactly do you mean by aggresive?too much negative camber?

No sir, I mean the width of my wheel. I am running an 18x11 +8 in the rear. This is a very aggressive size. It is very wide, and it needed some serious metal pulling and negative camber to make it fit. Had I opted for an 18x10, or something not as wide...I wouldn't be having any issues at all lol.

All of my issues are self inflicted.
