alright, my turn!!

DROP:

F 2.0
R 2.0

QUALITY:

pretty good ride, not too stiff, but you can tell a difference from stock. also the shock helps keep it a good comfortable ride. tires tuck up right to the fender.

TYPE:

Tein S.Tech

SHOCK/STRUT:

Tokico Illumina 5-way adjustable

WHEEL SIZE W/ TIRE:

17's on kumho 711 205-40R-17 shoes. but bout to downsize to 16's, and get some volk's on 205-45-16 shoes.

PIC's:





thats same day right after install. so now it's settled a little bit, so it looks even better. pm me if you need any pricing on anything, or want me to get u some good prices on this setup k?

good luck! and enjoy

Honestly I don't know how much I dropped it, but bottom tooth of the coilover in the front, 23rd tooth down in the back. (sorry for lack of a better term)

Shocks: KYB-GR2

Coilovers: I-Tech (knockoff brand)

Ride: Bouncy... I could've gotten better for the money. Don't drop in a hurry, 'cuz two day shipment = $$$

Wheels: 195/something/R14

I don't like these wheels, I want 205's later on.

I know you said lowering springs, but just thought I'd share some coilover info... (and don't ever get them!!!!)

check your shocks bro, cuz gr2's arent made for lower cars then stock, cuz its more of an overhaul replacement. and ask someone to measure from the center hub (center of rim) to the bottom of the fender, then measure yours, and subtract the difference and theres ur drop

Nope the insurance company is ******* lagging with my check. All they need to do is get a statement from the guy that hit me, but since both the guy and the insurance company never pick up their ******* phones, its going nowhere. When i finally get the damn check its gunna be for $1,881. I ******* hate insurance companies, if i dont get my **** soon imma blow that place up
