Megan Racing Lowering Springs (PICS)

Alright I decided to go with Megan Racing springs for a couple reasons. One, I havent seen anyone else go with them. Second, of the bigger drop rate, 2 front 1.75 rear. I've had lowered vehicles in the past and wanted to go low with the Evo also. I of course would like a nice set of coil overs but don't have that kind of money at this moment to put towards that. Please don't mind the ding under the gas cap lol happened while the wife had it. Go figure right? I guess we'll see how it rides when I get back to the states (sttiiilll on deployment).

Looks good, but too low to ride well IMO.

Looks good!!

We actually have a few sets of these coming in later this week with our Megan order. Let me know how the ride is, I'm curious to know.

I actually bought them on Amazon. But it was about the same price as getting them straight from Megan Racing. It came out to $176.00.

Thanks for the compliment! Well as for how it rides, my wife tells me it feels about the same. I won't know until a few more months when I get back on that side of the world. I'm sure I can point out the difference

I ran these on my car for about 2k miles.. the ride is as stated above... not super harsh but far better than stock. I was actually between coils due to blowing a rear so I figured they were a cheap solution. I actually still have them in my garage mounted on stock 2010 GSR struts... was planning to sell or throw them away since I am getting sick of looking at them LOL As for price, I think I paid like 135 from a local place when I was stationed outside of Austin, TX. Heres a pic of mine on them back when I was running XXR527's

I think they look really good for such a cheap price. Can you give me your wheel size and offset when you took this picture? I'm thinking wheels are next in line for me. Thanks man.

You didn't have any fender clearance issues with the 20 offset? I think some where on this forum guys were saying anything more than 22 required to roll the fender? I could be wrong as I am some what new to this. I was thinking along the lines of 18X9 +25.

Depends on tires... and suspension.. on the 18s I ran stock tires with no rubbing at all. On my advans I run 275-30-19 and never rubbed on my coils.. but good dampers and 12kg springs help. I only rolled so I can ride lower lol
