well guys... it's time to change the wheel/suspension setup on the ride.

old setup: ksports w/ advan oni's 17x8 et25 fronts and 17x9.5 et42 rears


new setup: hotchkis springs&sways w/ 18x8.5 et30 fronts & 18x10 et25 rears (wheels are in works!!)


what do you guys think?? opinions.. suggestions.. anything!!

 

I love my Hotchkis TVS!!!

I say just step up to the Hotchkis sways but keep the coils. You'll always have that adjustability of the coilovers that the regular springs just won't provide.

I just replied to your PM wolfsburg. After you see my response, you might rethink losing the adjustability that the coilovers provide. I say keep the coilovers, or bag it!

 

Why would you replace the K-Sports?

 

So what are you doing with the oni's????

 

just time for something different.. had a few problems with them and a little bouncy up front for the wifey.

well they sittin' in the garage right now for winter... trying to sell them but if not then winter project!

 

wow! those Oni's are meeeeeaaaaaaan!!

 

I didn't know winter existed in San Diego....LOL!

I might have to hit you up around tax time to see if you still have the rims. I like advans and they are hard to come by. I am currently rolling Green Super Advans (the originals) and love them.

 

thanks bro...

well rain does... lots of it too... haha!!

 

Thanks. I was considering going to coilovers and looking for some firsthand feedback on K-Sports. I'll probably stick with my TRDs and get Tokico Blue's when my oem dampers wear out.

 

well they aren't bad... i mean they get really LOW!! just not very practical for daily driving especially with the wifey driving it. so, going to a more comfortable and a bit higher spring setup.

if it was my daily driver then i'd definitely keep the ksports & SLAM IT!! hahaha... but that's me, i'm used to that!!

 

Do this! Disregard wife Acquire lowness LOL!

Doesnt ride half bad once you find the sweet spot.

 

how much for that set up pasquale

 

You have to take into account how much the air setup is, $2000ish depending on options. Then the coilovers, roughly $800. And last but not least, install.

All in all I'd quote someone about $4500 to do this.

 

Sorry I don't want to threadjack. Nava Send me a PM and I'll break everything down for you.

 

sooooooooooooooooooo whatcha doin with them ksports..................

 

I'd really like to see how you like the TVS setup. I have a pair of hotchkis springs sitting in my office...strongly considering ordering a set of tokico blues, and the hotchkis sways....and a nice set of wheels....and SS brake lines....etc, etc.

But like I was saying, please let us know how you like it!

 

There's a thread floating around here that's dedicated to the Hotchkis setup.

I personally love it.
