Default TEIN SS coilovers

I saw a used set on ebay, decent price. My question is how low can you drop the car with this coilover. I know megan has the lowest drop on coilover 1to4inch drop but how about the tein. I really want to slam my car

in my sig click on 'my car' and you'll see how low they drop in the front, in the back i still have few more turns. BUT always remember how low you CAN go also depends on your tires/offsets. Just cuz you can go lower doesn't mean you should.

if you really want to slam your car i believe the megans will be your best bet... tein ss's are comfortable and great coilovers but it just doesn't have the lowest drop....

i'm all the way down on my rear and compared to the megan... it's not even close
