Tein Springs are crap.

Lowering your car on stock struts will kill them sooner.

Try to find some MR Bilsteins and soem Swift or GT Worx Springs.

i have a question for u guys with stance evos. i just installed bc coilovers in my car but i cant deal with how bouncy the car is now. it rides worst then it did on gf210 lowering springs. the car is low but not as low as most of u guys and im just wondering if i did something wrong or it it because of my wheel/tire set up. the coilovers are set at 8 clicks from full soft on the rear and the front are all the way soft. if i try to make the front any harder the front of the car gets real bouncy.

wheels are RPF1'S 18x9.5+15 with 265/35 rubber. any help would be appreciated. thanks

you got me! I was thinking how the hell that would possibly fit a evo that is slammed on stock body? I mean it was pretty hard fitting 18x11 with 255/35's......

If you can fit a 18x9.5 +0 on your Evo 8/9... i know you can fit an 18x11.5" wheel. You might have to stretch a 265 or 285 on it... but I know it'll fit.

Your funny its all about inboard clearance....... which you dont have enouph! I have 2mm clearance in the front and 3mm rear. -3.6 camber! Im curious how you know it would fit? Maybe you are talking about a evo x? Or a evo 8/9 which is monster truck status and mexi-flush?
