Default Tein SS Coils Installed

Finally made the switch from F-sports springs to Tein coilovers over the weekend Big up to James. Besides the rubbing, ride is great just need some fender work and could go a little lower. I did the install all by myself I started around 9pm Saturday night and was all done by 3am Sunday morning just in time for the carshow 6 hours later. It was all worth it love the new stance

^do it the coils ride better, the wheels are 19x8.5 and 19x9.5 with aggressive offsets. It rubs on the front driver side because of that metal tab but i'll fix that this weekend and both rear fenders rub need to shave some more off then I can go a little lower.
