I just installed my s-techs yesterday and finally got some before after pics done. I love the ride, Its slightly stiffer than stock but not as bouncy, and much much less body roll. I measured the drop and it actually dropped it about 2 inches.

after:

 

hott

 

how much were they suppose to lower? i ordered s-techs for my xA and it says only 1.7". but still looks great, tho! :D

 

did you just cut the tree in front of the house?

 

 

the first picture was actually taken about 2 months ago, and through all the hurricanes it damaged that tree so we had to take it down.

 

Nice, and I believe the drop is more than 1.7 inches. I measured after the drop and I got 6.5" clearance from the ground to the front bumper and sideskirts.

 

Schweet. Another Tampa xB with the s-techs. I'm still waiting for my fronts to settle down a bit. Overall I too am happy with the ride. 120% better than the stocks springs!

 

Were in Tampa are you at. Im Actually in Brandon.

 

my htechs go in on sat

 

I live in South Tampa near MacDill and Gandy. I'm over in Brandon quite a bit though.

I think I saw you on Racetrack Road about a month or so ago. HID's are cool and all, but your lights are dangerously bright for oncoming traffic. Please adjust your lights lower or do something. That could cause an accident.

 

haha...that's crazy you noticed that. i was just staring at the car.

 

LMAO. I'm guessing one of the many hurricanes that came through the area took care of that tree. I have one in my front yard practically leaning at a 45-degree angle from the ground thanks to Frances. The house is a rental, so I'm just going to see how long the tree holds out.

 

i'm looking to get these springs as well. how many fingers can you fit between the wheel and fender? thanks.

 

I'll finger my box and report back to you.

 

I have the H Techs on my RS1. You like the ride a hell of a lot better once they are installed.

 

Where in Temple Terrace?
I live right off Raintree Dr.
