Wifey's IS-F on Tein Luxury Masters springs won't rub on "87" and the merge onto 87 to 280 but it does sit a little higher than mine
Cars look great

And yes I know exactly what you are talking about... 87 is ridiculous

I know exactly what you mean! I take the 87 everyday

Did you alter the settings on the coilovers or just install them right out of the box? Looks good btw.

Your car looks slammed, but looks pretty good. People have mentioned this before, but your front wheels are on the wrong sides, but that's an easy fix.

We have adjusted the dampering twice, the rubbing is due to the the wheel hitting the liner and that 's it. Just bugs me.

How does the ride compare between your KWs and your wife's Teins?

KW's of course are smoother and handles much better.

TEINs Springs are fine in the City but on the freeway you will get the big harsh one bounce. (kids never complain though) but the car never scrapes.

Wow nice job! Did you go with a different front spoiler or did you repair the one I sold you.
