honest opinion looks good but maybe a bit too aggressive in the rear, doesn't look lowered, spring spacers with coil overs? kinda dumb especially if you want to lower it more. as long as you like it thats all that matters =)

 

well done! looks awesome

 

Just to clarify a few things... The spring spacers stiffen the spring by locking out a few coils so you increase the rate (instead of getting new springs). This is the only way I could fix the rubbing and limit the travel. So no, it's not dumb because it's now a functional setup. The car is also raised due to the spacers, but with coilovers it's easy to compensate by just lowering it more. I agree, it doesn't look lowered enough in the rear, but that's due to me being lazy to adjust it since you gotta take the springs out to adjust the cups... But I like the raked look when the rear sits a bit higher than front, but that's personal taste. See, the rear always sags more when you actually drive the car with passengers and under acceleration, and that doesn't look good to me when the front looks lifted at that point.

Too aggressive? That's just how I like it. I wouldn't want to drive the car any other way, I just don't like when the wheels are flush or just barely poke.

Some of my old cars, also a bit too aggressive for some.

your previous cars all look perfect ! just in my opinion on the 3is rear is too low of an offset especially seeing your old car are aggressive yet lowered nicely.

 

I see what you mean. I'll drop the rear a bit when I get the chance.

 

Got new tires & dropped the rear a bit and stiffened it more with some spring mods.

The tires are 265/30/19 front, 285/30/19 rear.

 

Awesome! What a great build. Gefällt mir extrem

 

Looks great.

 

sexy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

love the simplicity of this and WIDE tires. did you just throw on the RSR coilovers out of the box without adjusting them first? just curious after reading your first impressions.

 

I adjusted them initially, but what's there to adjust besides the height? You can't mess with the preloads too much on the front, and there is none on the rear. So, out of the box, they are just too soft. The dampening does absolutely nothing to fix any rubbing. I'm not a fan of them at all to be honest. Would switch them out any time if it weren't for the labor and cost.

 

Love how simple and clean Dennis.

 

I have a quick question do you think 32mm spacers would cause any problems with rubbing ?

 

They will for sure. Go with 20mm on stock wheels.

 

Looks perfect now!
