still loving my springs and tokicos everyday....miss my b+G handling...but everyday driving comfort my df210s RULE!!!

 

im going to be getting both the tokico struts as well as the DF210's too. Just some quick questions: Do your wheels ever rub? And do you ever scrape the car on anything on the road/driveways while driving? Im concerned with that a lot because I usually carry a lot of people around in my car, so its a lot of weight. thanx.

 

i dont have a lip kit or anything... so scraping only occurs on really high angled driveways and deep dips and potholes. You just gotta be careful driving in some areas. I dont rub, but im on stockies...i think 18x8 et35 might rub.....id be safe and go et38 or higher...but im no wheel expert....im just speculating...

 

oh yeah when you install the tanabe df and tokico combo..you get superman colors! hahha

 

thats gonna be awesome. i wasnt sure, but since i dont want that big of a drop, should i go NF210 or INF210? I would prefer the wheel gap be closed like 1.5, but I want the comfort in the car to be nice.

 

I am on DF210's:



The wheels are 18x7.5 ET 35 and I never rub. I just wish I would have gone with struts too because my front shocks are blown. Must upgrade. The Tokico's that everyone is running with this set-up, are they Tokico HP (blues)??? If so, how is the ride??? I'm not sure if to get those or Koni adjustables.

Installed both DF210 & Tokico HP... yes their blue. As for the ride it's a bit stiff but not too harsh as an everyday driver.

 

I got the DF210s.....great everyday driver...actually wish it was stiffer. I switched from B+G coilovers...those were sooo awesome, but the g/f didnt like the harsh/noiser ride... you gotta get the tokicos...you wont bottom out...i rarely scrape (considering im in brooklyn ny..), only on huge deep potholes/ raised manholes...or really steep driveways... I want a bodykit...but I highly doubt it'll survive more than a week. If you commute alot...the tanabes are great.. enough for crisper handling....i love em...but if i was back in cali..i'd go back to coilovers....

 

DF210s

I just got some DF210's for my 06' tC and I was wondering if you all who are running these springs cut the bump stops. What if you don't? What does it really do? Forgive my ignorance. :D
Thanks!

 

my installer only cut the front bump stops...rear he left alone

 

I cut them with the intentions of making the car go a bit lower. Don't know if it did, but I love the drop.

 

Just got mine on a couple days ago! Tanabe DF210's. Love the stance. What do you guys think?

 

damn... looks nice, any probs with scraping with the oem lip kit?

 

Thanks! Not yet. :D I had a lowered car before the tC so I'm used to driving carefully.
