Default FS: Tanabe Sustec gf210 Springs

I have a set of Tanabe Sustec GF210 lowering springs for sale. They drop 1.6-1.7 in the FR and 1.3 in the rear...I only put the front on and it is just too low for my type of driving in NYC....If you love an aggresive look then this is definately the way to go.....these springs will drop your GS lower than L-Tuned, eibach, as well as H & R springs. They are good with L-Tuned shocks as well as bilsteins. It is the same drop as the Espelir springs but not as expensive. I will let these go for $275 shipped.

Let me know!!!

Thanks,
Danny

I didn't put the rear on b/c of my system...it weighs done the car alot....my box is built into the back of the car...plus the amps and stuff....It rides kinda like the H & R's its a bit stiff but its like everything else.....you gotta sacrifice something for another...I have L-Tuned shocks and I had them on before i put the springs on...I can tell you that the ride with these shocks is really nice!!!!

If you look at the 1st pic..the car is dropped exactly like that one...the drop is 1.3 in the rear so it will be right above the tire with 20's on.

Well hope all this info helped....I really like them and even contemplating on keeping them....but NYC is the worst for this kind of drop....all my friends love the drop and say that the car should've came like this straight from the dealer.....

yeah Danny, you know I'ma get on your **** too, I would like to see the whole car dropped! Was the front bumper lower than mine? I never have any scraping problems, even in fast food parking lots!

You see what Danny doesn't understand is that when he puts the springs in the rear it will take some stress off of the front and it'll raise abit.....

that is VERY true!! i did not realize how much the front and rear are related! i took my subs/amp/box out to go to the dealer, and the car rode alot better! I have 2 12" MTX 6000, and a sealed wood box. How much lighter do you think 2 10" Kicker L5s and a plexi sealed box will be?
