As for the VS-KF in Burning Black, I wanted wheels that totally contrasted the dark color of the car. I already see a lot of other cars when I drive around with the dark car/dark wheel combo.

Yeah, I think that's about what I was able to raise it in the front and now I rub minimally. I still gotta raise it up in the back to even it out better, but I've got no probs in the back so far

I read that somewhere too, multiple times! But hey, whatever floats your boat I guess. I myself don't wanna go so extreme, that I'd spend money sooner than expected!

Very nice set-up! Pretty aggressive stance!! So KYB manufactures Megans? I believe I saw KYB in very small text on my Tanabe's as well. Interesting...

Oh no, no! KYB doesn't manufacture Megan products. I was trying to explain on how my last car (Acura Integra) had a shock/coilover sleeve setup using KYB adjustable shocks. Not sure if they manufacture Tanabe products- I don't think they do though

Maybe it's cuz my offsets aren't aggressive at all But I was contemplating putting spacers.

So I decided to look for an old thread to add on to instead of starting a new thread. Man I kinda miss those VS-KF's from page 1!

Anyways, I got some work done this past weekend on my car suspension and the ride is much better.






Thanks to Zack at UAS and Areukhmer
