RE: tein springs

Also the offset of the wheels has alot to do with it..ive heard a +40 or +42 is what u want if u get 17x7's....and of course 205/40/17 tires...

RE: tein springs

ya depends on the offset and such if youd have to roll the fenders, or just run negative camber in the rear. camber doesnt kill your tires TOE kills tires extremely fast!

and when swaping the TEIN springs a simple way to know which spring goes where is to look at the springs.. the front and rear are different ends.... one pair of springs has a straight cut, and the other pair has a sideways like slice when cutting the springs...
just remove the front or rear and swap the pair at the same time.... dont remove every spring/strut and put them all together..... or else you will confuse yourself....

Yeah my 16's and Tein s-techs rub like a Bitch......so if u think your 16's arent going to rub then think again....

The only way 16's are gonna rub are if u have big *** tires...and yea more than likely u will have to do minor work to the fenders but go wit it ull be happier in the end with the result....

Well considering i have 205/45/16 and they arent big *** tires....but yeah im not argueing that i dont like it, i was just sayin i rub a lot....
