JAY nice meeting you dude! haha

 

So im new on here hoping to find/learn some useful info. Im dropped on Tein Suspension 1.5" drop front & 1" drop rear.I want to buy some rims but not sure what specs i should look for.i want my ride to look aggressive but i dnt want rubbing on turns ect.Can some1 help me?? Also any1 recommend what rims i should get for a Flint Mica TC??

 

Ur goinf to need some new suspension first..than get a 9inch + wide wheel with as low an offset u can find..ur going to have to roll ur fenders and deal with rubbing sometimes..not goinf to get very aggressive with a 1inch drop

 

Jona jay, i love your front lip! It sags so much. Did you modify it to be so low?

So jealous...

 

you guys are right. taking it off! lol

 

didnt know they were rep's, look damn good anyway.

 

just took it off. went lower about 1/2in

looks alot better thanks to filpmoob and rrimportracer

 

need to wait for springs to settle down ill take more pics tomorrow

 

^What springs did you get?? Just installed my B&G coilovers and the fronts can def slam(has an adjustment range of 4+"); now the rears, not even tucked(and that's set as low as I could, bottoming out the lower body), I do have about a 1/2 inch of thread between the spring perches and the lower body collar. Currently am riding reverse rake status(about 1/2" height variance from front to back) as it's now getting late and tired of making adjustments for today.

 

^
i have somewhat of the same problem, the fronts will slam, but my backs can tuck just a bit of tire when maxed out on my B&G's...i see some people almost tucking rim and stuff and makes me wonder what im doing wrong...not like i wanna go that low anyways haha

 

im on raceland. i believe almost two years now. when the first group started.

 

People remove the perch rings on the rears.

 

hey dz I installed mine as well about 2 days ago, and just like you and mystik the fronts can slam but the rears just aren't quite low enough for my liking, and I know that others have removed perches and such to get their rears to slam , I'm still debating if I want to do that or not, which I'm not really against but I have to consider other factors, I mean don't get me wrong I knew that this was the decision I would have to make eventually but i'm stuck at the moment as to what I will do, what are you guys going to do about your rear setups are you just going to bite the bullet and remove some perches?

 

^I have 1/2" of thread to play with before I get all the rings to get to the lower body, which will leave me with no preload on the spring, then taking off rings will def start reducing shock travel. The ride how it is now is just so good, dare I risk that?

EDIT: I think we should move this to here... https://www.scionlife.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=201213

 

Solution: remove perches/lockrings, spin coils alll the way down, spin shock body to lowest setting...

 

*facepalm* on faking the funk
