Does the rear sit lower than the front? It looks that way in some of the pics...

Anyone have issues with tire wear after putting on the tanabes? On that note, anyone add a camber kit and did it help at all?

Can't stand the gap on my 2013 Luxury with the 19" F-Sport wheels....

Default What Year Is your AWD FSport
Hey what year is you AWD? The Tanabe site says the 2013 model is compatible with the TNF170 model.

Don't mean to revive an old thread, but no choice...

After the car settled, any excess noise from the springs?

I lowered my AWD 4GS about a year ago. You have a few options available. Commonly people use Tanabe and RS-R and I have heard about swift springs as of lately not sure if they make a AWD application.

Here is my AWD car on RS-R downs

How are these AWD cars holding up with the aftermarket springs? I plan on getting some for my 15 F Sport. I also have a set of staggered Vossens that I plan on using during the summer months.

I'm curious too, I'm currently installing RS-R down springs on my '13 AWD and have a set of 20" Niche wheels I'll also be putting on. I'll be curious to see if I need to install the rear camber adjustment arms....I'll let you know how it goes.

How does your F sport AWD ride since you have dropped the machine. Any pics? So, you have used Tanabe RWD Lowering Springs on your AWD and it feels good?
