Tein Springs... 1.4? ASAP

[Pfed16]

hey guys... i had a quick question for those of u with aftermarket springs... when my friend bought springs for his car he bought the same size drop springs for the front and back. When he installed them, the front of his car was lifted more than the back. he then had to have them cut to have his car level. DID ANYONE WHO BOUGHT TEIN S SPRINGS (1.4 inch drop) have their car at an angle after it was dropped? thanks

that happens sometimes when you install them backwards lol

^ maybe he got fake tein s.techs...

did you seat the springs properly and cut the bumpstops? You have to turn them on the shocks until they seat themselves into the little dimple on the perch.

It's also possible that you got the fake s-techs. Real stech springs have printed part #'s on the springs. The printing will be white and follow the angle of the spring. Many of the fakes have the same printing there but it's either a sticker or it's off center.

but, if you have cut anything....then it's never going to work right now. Cutting springs makes them ride like crap.

it's impossible to install the rears in the front and the front in the rears
