SO How low do they go? just curious.. I know where i can snag a set of tein basics for about 250.. Thanks for the help!

 

NOTE: (Front -2.0" max, Rear -2.0" max)

 

Hrm i do not think that is gonna be low enoug.. Whats your souce from that?

 

progress...i get low and ride is beautiful

 

^^ that thing looks amazing!!

anyway, my roommate has the tein basics on his wrx. it sits real low and rides real nice.

 

basics were not designed to go that low. even if you ride them all the way down (which is more likely to give u a softer /bouncier ride) oh and my brand new set blew in 7 or 8 months because i set them too low. But I still reccomend them. great ride - sometimes feel stock on super smooth roads... assuming u dont go too low.

 

yea..Im lookin for someone to post up with them and show me!

 

Heres a few pics that are dropped on Tein basics all the way down in the front...






I was thinking of getting a set of Tein basics myself, but saved up to get Tein SS-P

 

HRmmmmm That silver one those must be 16inch Torques.. Hrmmmmmm i still dont think its low enough.. BUt for 250 man im sure the ride is worth it. BUt i want to be seriously Hammered.

 

$250 is a steal. Are they used?

 

ya used.. Those rotas 16s on the silver em2?

 

Yeah rotas on 215/50/16 tires I believe

 

hrm damn Man.. I dunno ive always put ground controls on everything in the past.. with stock shocks.. i dont mind a bouncy ride at all .. I really dont care.. but why spend 300 on just sleves.. I could just spend 50 bucks on ebay lol.. Ya know? I dunno those teins arent low enough.. im tryin to get like this..

 

theres not gonna be any coil overs you can just bolt on that will get you that low. i believe i have the lowest 7th gen civic (that ive seen) it was a long battle to get as low as i am. i could be loewer on 15s but i like a lil bit bigger wheel. i have alot of stuff done and modded to get it to sit like it does...and i can still go lower all around

 

im confused..... what are you talkin about.. pretty sure sleeves could get me as low as that em2 above .. the silver one.

 

eh...maybe, but why would u wanna be that low and have a garbage ride? u might as well chop the springs lol it would give u the same effect and kill the shocks just as fast. if u arent willing to drop the duckets to do it right why do it to begin with? if somethings worth doing its worth doing right

 

are your progress maxed out at the lowest setting?
and are they pretty stiff?

 

Eh I was gonna snag the teins bc they were cheap

 

sounds too cheeeap...

 

progress coils not maxed. i wouldnt say they are stiff but they are def more stiff than stock. i changed the spring rates and valving from stock also.

cheap is good but u usually get what you pay for homie

 

im definitely getting progress in the future- may it be for this car or any other car
- btw, what color are the springs and did you ahve to use any stock parts or are they true full coilovers with their own top hats?

 

i built a set of tophats for the rears and i bought the Ksport advanced fronts. but in most cases you have to use oem tops

 

Soooo yea no to teins

 

Pm me or something man.. Im Wondering what youve modded to get it to sit lower than normall.. Thanks in advance holmes!

 

how low can ya go?!!?
