How Low should I go??

[aznball3r]

Hey guys and gals, I'm happy to say that the time has come for me to finally lower my tsx.. took me awhile to save up the money for the tien ss. My question is how low should I go? what I'm going for is a hight where I do not have to worry about scraping most of the time.. but low enough to look clean. I'm running on 18 inch wheel 225/40/18 tires. plus I have the greedy evo 2 exhaust which are pretty big I'm worried about those too.

Any input would help. thanks guys!

I like 1.8-2.0 drop. Not too low, not too high.

whats up guys and gals, i Just got back from the shop and man you guys were right the car looks way better lowered.. anyway one question the guys at the shop lowered it with 2 finger space front and back, but now the back seems a tad bit lower than the front.. the guys at the shop said it was because they put my oem stuff in my trunk. my question is is that true? will the back eventually rise up? my greddy exhaust is scraping everytime I drive up my drive way. Thanks a bunch kevin

Well, its true, it does take some time to settle, wait till the morning, and then see what the drop is like

I usee to have a no finger gap for the last 2 summers and it looked and drove great. I just hated it that low because I had to slow down for every single bump in the road.

the 2 finger gap all around is perfect! except for the greddy exhaust., thats the only thing that is bothering me becuase its scraping everytime I come home. As for ride quality, Its great no complaints from moms or gf yet. =) i'll post some pics as soon as i wash the car.. Until then thanks for all the help guys.

Yes, it was probably lower because of the stuff in the trunk. Yes, it will rise up when you empty out your trunk.

You have coilovers. You can always raise the rear if you want.

Hey guys. I went to the shop today and Raised the back up as high as I could. The scraping is gone! Now i just wished I would've picked a slimmer exhaust to go with.. all in all Very happy with The tein SS.

thank you guys for all the help as always.
