Thread: pictures of how TEIN S.Tech Lowering Springs look on ser

hey i need some help i want to buy TEIN S.Tech Lowering Springs but it say it well lower 1.3 inches on the front and 1.1 on the back. it seems like it want drop alot >????

dose any one have TEIN S.Tech Lowering Springs on there car? can u
post up pictures to see the way ser looks like

thank you for ur help

1.3" isnt really that big of a drop but its enough to get rid of some wheel well gap. I was just looking at the info on the S tech actually. I hear the H techs are designed for the stock dampers but the drop is only 1.0".

my springs gave me a 2" drop.
I also heard that 1" or 1.5" is all you need to improve handling, anything more is just for looks :roll:

thanks 4 the help

HAHAHAHA.....Anything more than 1.5" is just for looks....agreed...LMAO.

Try a 3" drop, shit will handle like an Evo....well close to it at least.

not only is it just for looks, but you will also ruin the suspension symetery after these values, so infact, the handeling will get worst.

i have em on my car let me look for a pic

thank you for pic that helped and are those rims 16 or 17 ???

that supposed to be a joke?? 2" I would say is the borderline, that can be too much in some cases. Anything beyond that is asking for trouble. Not only will your car's handling be WORSE, it will also cause more wear and tear on ur suspension parts, as you DRASTICALLY change your suspension geometry. You put more stress on your control arms, bushings, axles, etc.

^^Sarcasm duh....but however, I had it dropped 3" and I never detected any "WORSE" handling.

having YOUR car that low, believe me youre doing more harm that good. You'd never detect the change in handling because your car was always low. If you raise your car back up to about a 1.5" drop im telling you you will kick yourself for not doing it sooner.

the difference is night and day.

I did raise it up, and now it drives like shit.

thats because you need an alignment dee dee dee.

if you are saying the lower the better, thats not true in the b15, maybe a honda or something but not our cars. The way it works is the further you move from the stock geometry, the worse its going to handle, period.

^^agreed

Fullah has it all right.. but not only do you put more stress on your bushing, control arms.. blahblah.. your tires get it too.. with all that negative camber.. you're tires are gunna go bald on the edges rather than even where it's supposed to wear.
