Tein Suspension

[HJM]

... about one inch from top of tyre to the wheel arch wasn't it?

Not any more it's not

(Wayne, I think he may have measured the gap prior to fitting - I'll give him a nudge tonight )

The car looks great....not as low as before but its a good height. I think the gap was about 35mm before at the front and its now about 45mm+/- The Teins are the same set up as on may car. The springs that came off were thick and possibley Cusco...looked an expensive set up with differing rate springs top and bottom. The Teins are about half the thickness. We can lower HJM's a bit but i think its ok

It'll do me...............

Sounds interesting...

I have the same setup but not put on the car as yet.

Assuming its the same spring rate does the car feel like it has enough travel to bottom out when the car has 4 adults in for example or high speed lil dips in the road?

45mm sounds about right to me too. Whats it like on the back?

Cheers

It's not taxed yet, but I'll let you know after lunch

(Seriously though, it won't get four adults in it until next week, so we will report back then - it's good to have it back though )

Good stuff ... wish I'd known that you had not fitted them yet as I would have got you to measure the wheel arch height on the Leggy ... I always said I wanted to mine to be the same ride height as yours esp at the front ... about one inch from top of tyre to the wheel arch wasn't it?

Don't worry Wayne, your Tein will come preset to a nice ride height, it'll drop the car a bit.

I had to raise the back a bit as I still have the little standard wheels...
