tien ss harshness

[matiasneto]

i have my tien ss set at 8 clicks before the hardest, it is a little rough. what i would like to know is what setting do you guys have it at

[wbenitez1128]

8 clicks, its smooth on the highway a bit rough on bumps...handling is great tho

I got 12 in front and 13 in rear - perfect.

[matiasneto]

the wheel is alreading scraping the fender clips
if i put it so soft won't that make it worse

[Peregrine]

maybe... not sure, mine are fine. in mine you can barely fit 2 fingers between the tire and the fender, but it's on angle with fingers facing upward. Horizontally, I can fit 1 finger only.

well how low did you go?

Your rear rims look so "wide" on the picture. Are you running 18X8.5 or something like 18X 9?

[Peregrine]

well how low did you go?
I never measured it exactly from the ground. I just made sure I got the height the same on all coilovers, but it's been a year, so I don't remember what that is.

[bluexcrush]

almost max drop :)

[matiasneto]

i am running 19 *8.5

[matiasneto]

i only have one finger of wheel gap either way

[chuson]

i am running 19 *8.5
Maybe that's why your tires are rubbing, I think you will need to set yourself to negative camber to get away with it.

BTW: Is your TEIN SS new or used? If it's used, are they in good condition?

[matiasneto]

they are brand new i have a camber kit for the back but not for the front

[matiasneto]

but my avatar does not show the car with the drop yet

With 16 being full hard and 1 being full soft, I'm using 4 in front and 2 in rear (so my rear sway bar can do some work too)

I usually go around with 14 front and 12 rear, but I softened it for a road trip and haven't gotten around to increasing it yet

But I did notice that it rides a little softer than when my coilovers were new. It takes some time for them to settle in.

I went the STIFFEST in the front, and 4-5 clicks from stiff in the rear.

If I don't do this, I will rub :(
