Default New pics. Lowered with Tein SS coilovers.

Hi guys. It just finished raining so the car doesn't look great but I wanted opinions on the new coilovers. I do not know the exact amount it's lowered but the front is as low as it goes. There is no rubbing anywhere.

It rides good. I do feel more bumps and it bounces more then before, but it's def something you can live with.

you might want to raise it up it will start rubbing once it settles in... but very nice... i have the same coilovers.... you could adjust the dampening system to make the ride better... very nice though

Yeah, I'm gonna give it time to settle and adjust it afterwards if needed.


Price was $950 + labor.
