so i just bought some rare Kei office coilovers for my SC400 and just noticed how everyone's opinion has been that they ride too harsh, thats fine i can buy different springs, but how low are these going to be? I drive this daily on supra tt wheels and dont want to be flat out slammed and it look like crap. i have 19x11 and 19x9.5's that i will be putting on soon with a good amount of stretch as well as the rear fenders rolled. can i raise the coils up enough to where it sits the tire EVEN with the fenders for a more dignified stance or it it going to look like i am a ricer who cut his springs? i should have researched better before i bought them, but i bought them as an impulse buy due to their rarity. any help would be greatly appreciated.

Theyre coilovers. height adjustable. you can raise them as high as you want. If you didnt want to ride that low, why buy coilovers? Couldve got a shock & spring set up that would have rode better at the height it seems u want.

i do want it lower than simple springs would go. most spring/shock combo only go 2.5 even with supra components. i read where PBM (spell check) had issues wit the dampners being too short when ordering for MKIV to put on SC and the threaded collar running out when adjusting and the SC's still being slammed. the fix was ordering 1" longer dampners for the SC. i guess my question is, does this happen with any other coilover when ordering MKIV coilovers for an SC?

This car is on espelir springs for the SC specifically, and running 19" rims just like you.
There is no fender gap at all and he probably rolled his fenders so as not to rub.

Somewhere between coilovers and springs? How much lower do you want than this without being slammed/tucking tire sidewall?

that is actually the exact look i was going for, nice and clean! maybe .5 lower. . . that really sits nice.

I have espiler springs with 19"s and my rear isn't that low. Maybe that white SC has blown OEM shocks or something.

Tabaka your car sits beautifully, case closed lol

Heres his thread on some forum, its a crazy build thread for a RWD celica but he briefly mentions the SC in his 1st post.

Espelir doesn't make ASD's for Supras, they only make the GT springs which aren't as low.

I forgot to add, Kei Office coilovers....wow. That's some rarity right there. Must have been sold in the late 90's or early 2000's
