Tanabe DF210's

I recently put the DF210's on my box and absolutely love them. It is actually not as low as I was expecting. The ride is really good. Maybe just a little more bouncy on rough roads but the look is awsome. I have yet to scrape anything because of it being lowered. I highly recommend them. I installed them by myself under my carport in about 2 and a half hours. The only help I had was from my 9 year old son to start the bolt on top of the struts. Followed the DIY in the tech section. It worked perfectly. I took it to the dealer the next day for an alignment and it was only out just a little bit. I also added the Progress technology rear sway bar at the same time and the handling now is incredible. Almost no body roll now. Sits down and hugs the turns really well now.

I got the DF210's on my wife's and it's really low, more than I expected.

She says the steep driveway at her work parking lot is the only place she bottoms the car because of the drop. Oh well.

Not as low as I expected either...My experience is exactly the same- carport 2 1/2 hr.s ...except My wife reluctantly started the nut for me.

I did alot of research before I bought mine. I went with the DF210's. They should be here this saturday, I also running 17's with a 40 series tire. If you PM this guy "C2AUTOSPL"
Or look for the sale in the "general forums"/sponsorded sales" but you have to have some email correspondence to get the best price. Almost 100 less than advertised on the web site. Sweet deal. Pm me for more info. And I'll be posting as soon as I get them on..
