s-tech

Hey I put a pair of s-tech springs on my tc and they made my tc look a lot better, but I also have 18 inch rims and they would always scrape inside the wheel well even if I hit the slightest bump. Now I want that sick look back, but I know my tires well just scrape inside the wheel well again. Dose anyone have any tips on how I could make it not scrape?

try having coilovers with really nasty threads so the collars arent even adjustable by tool, i have to use a giant metal bar and a hammer.

take about 3-4 hours to lower or raise my car. hahaha

have you tried soaking the threads in lube and then using a wire brush on the threads? winters in MA get pretty rough but after doing that before adjusting the height i have no problems turning the collars by hand.

My friend's skunk 2 springs did a major epic fail after 8 months... then he went ksports... seems pretty satisfied with those. It's a pretty effin stiff ride.
