Tanabe springs AWD?
I have a 15 Fsport AWD and have been looking at Tanabe springs. Any issues with putting these on the AWD’s and if so what’s a better option?

No real problem with the springs its made to work with the GS the only issue is you shorten the life of your struts other than that I have been running them for about 7 months and many others longer and no issues. I also have them for sale if your looking for fairly new ones at a good price.

I was actually going to put Tanabes on my AWD, non-f. I talked to Tanabe and they said that the rwd ones were the same, and they are listed as the same part model. They actually tested them on a car up north. The problem I had was finding them in stock, apparently you can't find them and the earliest would be later next month. Ended up going with the RS-R down's AWD I put on 2 weeks ago. I've been happy with them, the spring rate will be different from Tanabes though that claim only 5% off factory. But it really gave my car a nice drop from AWD. I could have went super down but didn't want to be slammed and rub.

Its all around, the front is 1.3 inch drop and the rear is 1.5 inch and they have settled so the drop is pretty nice. The RS-R is a lower drop if you want it lower than I would go RS-R as they drop pretty low as many members have stated. If you want I can post a pic of what the car looked like on stock wheels.
