Post Tanabe Df210 ???
Hey guys, i was just wondering if the "TANABE DF210" was a too much of a drop? or is it perfect? Or is Eibach better? and im riding on OEM rims. 17"

DF's are aggressive. Eibachs aren't nearly as low. All depends on what you're lookin for. I have Espilers. drops about 1.7F/1.2R theres about a finger gap maybe. Rides great and I got 20's with no rubby

Havent seen them on a GS but have them on an IS and they handle really well. Drop is pretty nice, definately closes up the wheel well gap and give it a mroe aggressive look.

Here are the DF210's on 18's. I think the spring rate is increased by 10-15%. The ride is not too harsh. But I'm on Florida roads.

That looks sick. I like those wheels. Who makes them.

I still don't think it's low enough since you want to lower your car. It's nice but to me, that's conservative.

It all depends on your wheel tire combo. They are perfect for 20s on a 245/35
they tuck a little and that's as agressive as you can get on after market shocks.
