I'm also lowered with these springs. Well, highered I guess. It seems like a fuckin 4x4 for me. Do you have before/after pics? Maybe I'm just totally not used to having this much tire gap.

When you get your alignment done post the results. I'm curious to see the camber specs.

"very very stiff spring" ?! well I guess I'll pass on these then, damn.

^^^ez, what is that on your sig about 114 octane???

>"very very stiff spring" ?! well I guess I'll pass on these
>then, damn.

LOL by no means are these stiff springs. These are very low rates.

^That's what I thought too, after seeing those spring rates, they looked ridiculously low. I thought that might even be a mistake. But if SilverNT says they are "very very stiff", it just solidifies my doubts. evulflea, when you get yours see how it actually feels relative to prokits (you had those among others, right?)


Oh, and copper, the sig is about toluene ;-)

Oh they are on the car. They are soft.

I can stand on them and maybe get them down almost an inch if I bounce. On my coilovers I couldn't move them over a millimeter. My coilovers had 550lb springs.

I've had skunk2, sprint, cheap coilovers, intrax, maxspeed coilovers, and now Teins. Skunk2's kind of suck IMO. Sprint probably were one of my favorites. Cheap coilovers were on and off in 1 minute. Intrax were pretty nice springs but not low enough. Maxspeed coilovers really impressed me and are very good for $100. Teins aren't low at all and pretty soft. Almost like a stock replacement. Hopefully it lowers/settles a bit.

It's hard for a car to go much lower then stock when the springs are the exact same height as stock.



Rears are the same also.


GAP!

damn you must be an expert at changing suspension now

>damn you must be an expert at changing suspension now

Ummm. I forgot about a piece from my coilovers. The coilovers have a plate that replaces the little strut cup deal. Anyway, yes this is what happens. But yeah, I can do all 4 in about 2 hours.

I kinda like my ride stiff! Hey Evulflea, your engine is dirty!

Not a fan of tein springs for a few reasons.

1. the fact that u have to compress the front springs to put them on pissed me off being I dont have air tools.

2. I need a more aggresive drop. When they settle it drops a little but if you have like 16's on your car , the drop will still look like stock.

3. Has nothing to do with Teins but I need air tools asap :(

DaRKoRACLesRS : and u know what happens when white doods loose it
DaRKoRACLesRS : there gonna find me in an apt with a refridgerator full of body parts

If you like the stock ride quality with a drop, these sound like a good way to go.

Chris as far as being able to compress stock springs by hand and not the Teins, remember how many miles were on your stockers.

For me it's Eibach Prokit, one of these years.

Hell yea. My Prokits and Tokicos are my favorite mods.

i have the same springs waiting to be installed but was wondering if you have pics of them on the car...

rear

front

next=17in rims

wow... i can't really tell that's lowered, maybe .75 inches at the most. weird springs.

my car, however, is way too low. i have the eibach sportlines and wish that i had bought the prokits.

Prokits are the bomb!

looks stock :wary

Whoa i second that ^.

No offense, but i think you wasted your money....

Same springs on my car w/tokico blues.

The 14s I think make it look deceptive.

evuflea can you meaure from the tip of your fender to the top of the tire

wat size rims and tires u have

and also could u take a pic of the rear

I have Intrax. They ride good, but they only lowered it about 1.25 inches in the front and rear. They said that they were 2 inches, but I really don't think that it dropped it that much.

most lowering springs are stiff because you need a stiffer ride to balance the drop to keep suspension travel the same. lowering your ride height with soft springs is what ruins ball joints. you basically bottom out the ball joints.
