Anyone with tein s techs know how long it takes till the springs settle? I've seen pics of xb's with the same springs that look a lot lower than mine. I've had mine on for about a month now.

 

please no, I have a set on the way, so bump for someone else wanting to know.

 

honestly, like a drive around the block about does it. So, after a month, you're as low as you're going to go. But, like you, I've seen where those springs are low, so maybe the install was messed up?

 

My Goldlines don't quite appear to be as visually low as some other pics online that I've seen.

But one thing I've wondered is this: maybe on those vehicles people are running wheel/tire combos that are larger than stock, so the tires fill out and reduce the wheel gap, whereas I'm running stock radius tires.

Dyran what size tires have you got on your 17x7s? I have 215/40s, which give a stock radius. A lot of people run 215/45, which has just about 1/2" larger radius, which would give 1/2" less wheel gap. (and actually raise the car by 1/2" too)

 

That's probably it then. I have 215/40s.

 

when i saw the title of this thread, I immediately pictured this

 

dont expect them to settle more than a 1/4" or so.

 

Yeah Tein says no more than 5mm.

 

my friends car has tein s techs and his settled real nice.

 

very nice, what size and kind of wheels are those?
