Default Tein Flex Z Coilovers / Work Emotion M8R Wheels

In celebration of approaching 100k miles for my GSh, finally took the dive into ordering new suspension set and some nice shoes for my gal. Got both the Tein coils and Work wheels at a solid price. Anyone got some input on these coils? I’m used to BCs. Also think these Works will look great, almost took the bronze but gunmetal looks great with the lighter silver. Fronts 19x9.5 +25 and rears are 19x10.5 + 22. Should arrive in a few weeks and will post up.

I think that setup is going to look dope! I love the wheels you chose, multi-spoke concave with a full face. I went with a similar setup on my silver 450H as well but my wheels are in silver. I’m actually having my coilovers (Fortune Auto) installed today.

I’m looking forward to seeing what your setup looks like when you have everything installed. Should look awesome 👍

Long time coming, but life sometimes gets in the way! Coils, wheels on and tires on!

Have to say I’m very pleased with the Tein coils, super comfy and responsive, despite being on the firmest setting (rubbing, so best to). The tires are Continental DWSO6+ Extreme Contacts, 245/40 fronts and 275/35 rears. As noted rubbing on all 4, will be getting fenders rolled soon. Once done I want to lower the front a 1/4 to 1/2 an inch more, maybe rears to? I also was thinking I should’ve gotten the front .5mm wider. Also need to get them center caps. Gimme your feedback club!!
