Default TEIN QUESTION

not sure if its worth it but i recently got a hold of a tein basic damper kit for my ek hatch. i would love to have a lower drop but i have them all the way down. i love the ride but not the look. i have heard you can swap the springs for another type of tein spring for a lower drop. or start cutting. i dont want to sacrifice the ride though, any suggestions???

you can order custom springs from tein, or "start cutting" lol. But the damper length might stop you from getting the ride height you desire.

I had tein basic also on my EK hatch and had them all the way down it wasn't a bad stance but I wanted about another inch. I would suggest selling teins and getting some diffrent that will get you where you want to be.. I would go with buddy club or maybe F&F
