searching pulled nothing much, lotta talk, but no pics of wheel gap. just curious how low these will go.

thanks for the help if you can

 

Well they are coilovers so they are adjustable, without looking I'm going to guess that they can drop your accord anywhere from 0.2 - 3.5 inches.

You're looking at anywhere from almost stock to no gap and possibly the wheels under the guards slightly, depending on wheels/tyres.

No point looking for someone with them on their car as their settings might be different to what you want. Just look for a drop that you would like.

i would like to see a actual picture, hence why i asked. why spend 1000 on suspension without seeing it, #'s on paper are one thing, but on a car is another. if you can help please post. a simple request. thanks.

 

I don't see why it's important to see a picture. I could understand if you were buying springs but you want coilovers where you can adjust them to however you want. I could post a pic of any accord at any height and tell you they are teins - would it make you feel any better? No.

I would suggest emailing the manufacturer and asking them the range of drop that their ss coilovers provide - I couldn't find it on the website.

Tein is a brand name manufacturer - I don;t think they are trying to fool anyone.

Anyhoo - here;s a pic of an accord on tein coilovers.



Here's the proof that I'm not lying to ya! http://board.accordtuner.com/s...15156

I would suggest visiting as many boards as you can and searching for tein and accord - that's how I found this one - I;m sure he's a member on this forum anyhow.

holy cow. un needed anger or whatever.. specs dont mean anything till they are on the car. im sure youve seen my car on HS. and its low. im almost all the way down on my ground control coilovers as it is and want to make sure the teins will perform as well. im no nOOb that needs to get flammed for asking for a pic. simply asked.. if you got em can i see em. didnt think that was a crime...

 

Man - are you the same teamblend as on Honda Society??

I'm sure there are heaps of accords that have been on Teins. Just though you would have searched - I picked that one up after 1 minute of searching.

Sorry dude.

yea only 2 on there, and on was on tein HA's and then steve was on SS's which ive seen in person, but he hasnt adjusted them all the way down. just thought id ask and see if someone had them all the way or close to all the way adjusted down.

and i dont frequent accordtuner. do i really need to search all boards in existance before searching? i search honda-tech, and im posting on honda-tech. if i was to post on accordtuner im sure i woulda searched first there. HT has alot of people on teins, just guess not on accords.. oh well

 

finding accord posters is the only obstacle

 

doesnt seem like many have nice parts, few and far between. what set up are you running for suspension gaydm? i prob should have searched first for it tho.. lol

 

Here's another one apparently on Tein SS coilovers from accord tuner.



Raz (I had edited my post after you replied - notice the "sorry dude" )

 

just on agx/prokit for the time being

 

right on raz, helpin me from NZ, hhehe. i guess ill just have to buy and see. but alota money to thro down without knowing. im gettin em from a HS buddy so i guess i can just roll to his house, drop it all the way and see.. prob what ill have to do.. thanks again

 

How low are you now? Looks damn low! I would email them - their website says stuff all about the drop ranges - it must be to at least 3.5".

Raz

 

real low as it sits not. not sure the #. ground control states they go to 3.5in down, and im sure im close to it. so thats possible. i dont think the SS coilovers go that low. im too tired to check the exact specs..

 

Found this on AT - the Tein basic coilovers are roughly:

Max. 94mm front and about 74mm rear

That's 3.7" and 3" roughly for the americans!

So surely the SS's would be at least that.

No pics.. highered it b/c the b-pipe hangs too low.

You'll be near the bottom if you wanna tuck.

 

I'm on Tein SS's, car sits about -2.4in in front and -2.0in in back, as recommended by the manual for default settings.
