Does anybody have rubbing issues on the Tanabe DF210's? Im torn between those and the Eibach Pro Kit, but with my teenagers in the back seat at times Im concerned with going too low.

I like the larger drop , but dont want to worry about rubbing issues and dont want to modify the car to go lower (shave/pull fenders).

Is anyone running Tanabe DF210 or Tein S Tech springs ? I am curious if you have any rubbing without rolling/pulling fenders?

I was looking at the Eibach Pro Kit but if I can get a little lower without rubbing issues I would like to.

Looking for black wheels for my car and have been for weeks. I saw your GS and thats it. Thats what I want. Great looking ride my friend. Love it. Sleek with just enought chrome and not too much. I just lost the love for shiny wheels and the all black just "bleed" into the tire IMO.

I have Megan coilovers, which ran me about 650. If you want adjustable ride height then coilovers are the way to go. Megan coilovers are pretty good, although I am wanting stiffer spring rates now that I am really low. You can chop springs but I dont recommend that.
