Decision to lower more?

[marlondog]

Leave your car alone! Screw looking bad ass and having your car slammed down to the ground. The ride fricken sucks, and you have to drive your car like you are scared of every dip and bump in the road.Why all of that just to look hard?My biggest mistake was getting coilovers; I never could be happy with one setting. Either the ride is too high,too low,too stiff, or never right period. You have a good set up. Those springs and shocks alone are just about the same price as a set of ok coilovers. Your car may not look as shocking as one that is slammed or hellaflush, but I bet its more fun to drive.

Hey, I do really appreciate the honest thoughts.

I have thought of this and this is why I do not plan to slam it. I am happy with some wheel gap, but I know that I can have a comfortable ride and still drop another inch.

As well, if I were in a town, or had a regular drive schedule over bad roads and rough territory, I wouldn't do it. Additionally, I am keeping the stock springs, most likely, and could go back anytime if things just didn't work out.

Now...those that go for the "penny-off-the-ground" frame drop, that is way too much for me and they are welcome to it and I agree it cannot be very comfortable.

So, I have elected to go with DF210's to keep the drop even and another 1/2 to inch.

I have a set of slightly used teins I can sell you.

Thanks but DF210s are here tomorrow and on the car on Saturday. We'll see how it works out.

Thanks,

Just let me know I'm not too far away.

Hey, just noticed your location...guess I am tired.

What is the status on the Teins? Do they lower more than DFs? MI shows they drop 1.9", but I am not sure if that is front and back. I think the DFs will get me there enough.

Why did you get the Tein's?
