People With Tein Help

Iam planning on buying the tein basic coilover suspension and was wondering if it will give me a no finger gap between the wheels. My car currently has 215/40/18 nitto tires and i would like to have a no finger gap all around. The wustion is will the tein suspension give me that or will or should i go with some other type of full coilovers........

thatnk you for your answers they will be appreciated...oh and i looked around for pictures and i cant seem to find anyone that has 18 inch tires with the tein suspension dropped to its max.

Thanks

I don't think that even with the 18's the teins will give you no finger gap around, you might want get B+g's, KW's or something. The Teins really don't "slam" the car. Even tho they go low enough for me.

PM somepeople with teins see what they say.

Not on Teins. I have it lowered all the way and its great. I get compliments all the time on how great my ride quality is and how good the handling is...Its an amazing set up for your suspension, the ride is great. better than stock, just stiffer. No bounce or anything like that tho.

You can get your car pretty low but I'd suggest to lower them to reccomended specs from Tein, so that they last longer. I have the Basics and have no complaints I love them.

thanks for all the replies i think iam going to go for the tein basic setup it looks like its worth the price and from the pics that i saw it looks like it does go pretty low and that ride height is perfect for me since i dont want it slammed all the way down just enough so it has little gap thanx everyone
