Ok so I bought some tein S-tech springs last August and just never had time to throw them on. So this week during spring break I was planning on putting them on just in time for the April HT meet . So now to my questions.

1) Would it be alright if I cut one coil of the springs?
2) If I did this would I be messing up the spring rate?
3) Are there any dead coils on the teins?
4) Would this make the ride of springs rougher?
5) Would it even lower it that much more?


Thank you for all your help

 

No, dont cut the springs. Its a good drop, but if you want to slam it then cut one coil, but I dont recommend you to do that because youre car might bounce more. If you do cut the springs it would make the car alot lower. How low do u want to go? I recently got the the s-tech springs, and it didnt look thatt lowered at first but it settled in alot more now. So if you cut the springs then you'll defenitly will be lower...look at my car (avatar), that piture was taken the same day i lowered it.

 

Do you have any bigger pics of your car you could post?

About how long did it take to settle?

Thank you for all your help. Ya i dont think i will cut them.

 

do not cut em. the tein s techs are a perfect drop, although sometimes i wish my car were lower.

Here's a pic of my car on the s techs with 215/45/17.

Nice car. Looks exactly like mine with my DC5R rims on. Except replace the Front ITR lip, with a CF itr lip, the Stock hood with a CF hood, the Stock trunk with a CF trunk, and the s-techs with Tein Flex along with a few other goodies.

 

Here you go, pictures of my car:

 

Ya man your car is sick. I can't wait till i get to lower that ****.
