Hey i dropped my celica 1.5" / 1" with Tein springs this summer and its definitively a great improvement (handling/look). Thing is, i live in Canada and we have lot of snow/ice in winter and im getting a little bit less happy about my springs... already crushed a gaz line and the plastic guards uunder fornt bumper have been torn apart just because im 1.5" lower and theres not much snow yet...
Maybe I should have put coilovers so i can jack my car when winter comes? I heard coilovers = harsh ride thats why I went with the springs. Anyone who is going to dropp think about it if you live upthere... |

I had GC's for about 2 yrs and never even raised them during winter season. Main reason I got GC's in the first place was the fact that we do get snow here in Michigan. I just never even bothered to raise them. It's a good think I put the S-Techs on because when I took my GC's off, the aluminum sleeve was split right at the base about 1.5".
