Default Pics of Tein Type Flex on 96-00 civic or any car

Used the search and i could't find anything. I'm looking for a good suspension that i can use on and off track. from my research this seems to be the one but if im not mistaken the amount it lowers your car is pitiful call me a ricer but i want the car dumped. Anyone have pics of this or a better suggestion as to what to use? is the type flex that much better than the super street? Thanks in advance! PICS PLEASE!

they only lower the car up to about 3 inches, maybe 4
but thats not atall what there for, if your going to dump your car, its not going to
handle that well, unless you dump it on the street and raise it up for the track

the tein flex is an adjustable full coilover, they recomend height settings for the best setup, what you listed is what they recomend you set the height at for the best results

I have flex in my gsr. You can go lower w/o affecting preload or travel, the whole basis behind "flex". You can go much lower than 3-4 inches if you wanted to w/o affecting the way the car rides. I am speaking from experience being that I own em and my car is pretty low, but I still wanna go lower, gotta wait till I roll my fenders.
