Megan Racing Lowering Springs

[3kgtluvr]

First off, i saw price was mentioned 88 + shipping, came to 113 total to the house. i payed 136 for my kyb fronts. second, the car rides AMAZING. ive got compliments all day on it. no house of mice going on either, they are very quite and seated very nicely. they are not very bouncy or rough, however you can obviously tell it is a bit stiffer than factory. as for clearance, i have 18s and they have about 1 1/2 inch to the fender on front and 1 inch on rear.




and before shots

The back of the car seens really low. And the rear drivers side looks pushed forward. I like the front rideheight, but the rear, can someone tell these lowering spring manufacturers we want the wheel gap to be even?

Looks good. Glad to see those springs are working out for you. You definitely need to get adjustable control arms though. Rear looks way out of wack. Have you tried to get an alignment yet?

The back of the car seems so low because there is so much negative camber. I'm sure it would look fine if the alignment was in spec.

Here is a photo that was posted on a certain other forum of a car with these megan springs, ecs shocks/struts, 18" X 9.5" wheels, and 265/35-18 tires. The guy claims that he hasn't noticed any rubbing.



The wheel gap in the front and the rear looks pretty even to me.

Yes, and they said they won't come out anymore. Sooo that's why I'm getting adjustables. And thatnks for the compliments. I wonder why my car is so much lower than his.. Hmm. Next to go on is testpipe and new catback with c6 tips

You must not have seen his car before the springs. He had the wheel gap from hell.

If you have the factory size tires, your tires are taller than his.

They are 245/35

They are 245/35

No way... Those have to be 245/40 or 45. 35 series on that tire width would be rubber bands man!

other than me needing rear adjustable camber arms (stock are maxed) they are great!! i am thoroughly happy with them in every aspect. no squeaky mice in the back or front, no rubbing, however i can see it being possible with like a 24 offset and 275s lol. ride is nice and comfortable, i lost my ecs but i didnt care for it anyway. so im guessing its in sport mode now, and even then its quite enjoyable. great value. i have not a single bad thing to say. if you want before shots let me know!

Why don't you have ECS anymore?
I think you're going to need both camber and toe arms at your ride height if there are toe arms for turbo cars. My car isn't even as low as your car is and my toe is out of spec.

I think the reason it looks pushed forward is because I think his toe is really maxed out as well. Not just his camber.
