Default TEIN CS coilovers finally on!
What a difference! The car handles better, and rides smoother than the stock suspension! And the drop is dead even, which was my main goal (I just couldn't stand the lean my car had). Thanks to M1 Autosports for a great price, and a very professional and perfect install and adjustment to insure the even drop!!

Here is a couple of before pics...................................

before pic on the stock rims........................


And here are the after pics......................

Looks great all around! Glad you finally found your Tein!

I like the drop it offers in the front compared to springs.

Thanks for all the positive feedback guys. Notice how huge the passenger side front wheel to fender gap is in the "before" photos , and how perfect it is in the "after" pics . Ahhhhhh nothing like an even drop

Nope, still have about 1" of drop left . Not that I even could go that low with my 20's.

Thanks! I thought about going with just springs, but I really wanted an absolute even drop, and knew springs wouldn't get it right.
