Default TEIN CS Ver 2...

Hey guys, finally slapped some badboy wheels on.. Need to lower it, MUST lower it.. I can't stand stock height !

I can do a search but I am lazy, forgive me !

Can you slam your car on the new tein cs? I want the front and rear to be almost tucking. I have 19x9 and 19x10.5

thx

I have the old CS. My fronts bottom out on every little small bump in the road when its lowered to the max. I changed my front springs to a higher spring rate. The problem is gone, but it raised the car about 1 inch. You can slam the rear all the way with no bottoming out issues. The only problem with that is that the rear brace will scrape everything.

i am not sure if you can tuck the wheels with the tein cs (bottom out issue aside). with 20s it might be possible, but with 19s, maybe just barely?

With Oem wheels and tires, you can drop the car to the round line that circles the tire.
