Need some direction from some Tein CS owners
Hey guys..I recently purchased a set of barely used Tein CS coilovers from a CL member and will be installing them in a day or two....When I received the coilovers it appeared as though they were still set in a lowered position (The CL member was running 19s).
My question to you guys with 20s and Tein CS is can you give me a thread count front and rear (let me know which thread you use as a starting point)...at least as a starting point (lower than stock) that can put me at about 1.5 to 2 fingers front and rear....I am trying to avoid putting on and taking off the wheels 50 times
My current setup is
front - 20x8.5 +35mm 245\35\20
rear - 20x9.5 +40mm 275\30\20
Thanks in advance for your help..

of all the analysis i have done, do 75%. meaning if you want to lower the car by 1", then lower the coils by 0.75"

you can download the manual on Tein website. they have a recommended starting point. I went a few threads lower than that and my car lowered about an inch. Since you are getting 20s, there's at least another inch less of wheel gap.
