Me again

Springs are fitted! I'll be getting up pics soon, but i've got a question!!

The rear springs seem to have lowered the car alot more than the front ones!
Is it just me or is this possible???!!!?

Someone's also told me that the front springs will not show much of a drop until they settle.... said 2 weeks should have them settled.... is this true??

I'm a lil worried that i made a bad choice of springs

 

what tanabe springs did you use

both of the tanabes i saw are about the same between F AND R

NF210 - 1.4 Front and 1.5 Rear

DF210 - 2.0 Front and 1.8 Rear

 

Apologes... forgot to mention!
I've bought the tanabe NF210's!

 

the difference in the drop between the F and R is only .1 inches ... the rear shouldnt be lower then the front at all considering stock the front is lower then the rear and you only changed that ratio by .1 inches...

post up some pics so we can see what you are talking about

 

I just had a look through the tech article and found this:

So I guess it's normal then for the front to look a little higher at first.
Or i could be looking too hard? hmmm

 

just wait for them to settle.

Also don't forget to get an alignment done in a few weeks. your toe will most likely be off.

 

my toe?? hehe and in english?

 

Toe.

Stand over your front wheels. Imagine that the wheels are pointing outwards, or inwards to your point of view. That's toe. It greatly reduced ride and handling, as well as increased tire wear.

 

right ok thanks for that.... so i'll wait for springs to settle...then take it for alignment.

it should need it since ive actually just changed my rims and tyres too!

 

wheels and tires don't really change the alignment, unless you were meaning that since you don't wasnt to ruin your new rubber.
