looks good man... dropzones arent junk its just being that low sucks sometimes. I had no problem with my suspension when i had the dropzones and kyb adjustables.

the car handles like a mofo, just every little bump is a big bump if you know what i mean

actually i didnt think they had a bad ride. I was very satisfied with the quality to price ratio. They road solid for me on roads around home, but yes when I hit a bump it would jossle you a little. Had to lift it up though because of the roads I was starting to travel on. Good luck man, it looks very nice now be extra careful on those speed bumps.. just because you get the front over doesnt mean that you wont bottom out underneath.. trust me I have done it. take acccount for height of those bumps and the clearence under the car.

The "decreased comfort" of a lowered car causing a bump to turn into a jolt has never bothered me... Not. one. bit. I guess that's because I'm a mechanic and used to working on POS cars, lol.

From what my microscope can show me, it looks pretty good :p I also dont mind the feel of a lowered car, you just have to be more careful and take your time going over speedbumps or for me mainly, going onto roads that are inclined or coming out of driveways. You'll get used to it though. Its no worse than having to be careful when you have nice rims and have to avoid curbs and potholes.

Looks good. Thank god another DSM 4x4 is no more.
But, if the dropzones are working for you, why spend the money on Teins?:shrug

ok well the driv home was pretty sweet, i got out of work this morning 30 min early so ther was no traffic if not a car onthe road, anyway i wanted to see how far i could push the drop zones and to my suprise this bitchs are sweet, i couldnt cross "that line" i was pushing them hard as hell too....not bad...i just gotta get use to the lower feel then i guess
