i have a set of tanabe df210 springs. the instructions say to cut the bump rubber. what exactly is that? does it effect ride height, because my car doesn't look like it has a 2.2 inch drop right now. thanks.

haha thanks. i don't like the gap between the fenders. i'm running 16 inch celica gts rims 205/50. might step up to 17's sometimes. still not really sure about the whole spring settling thing... but thats to all that helped. i hope others find this info useful as well.
QUOTE (block @ Jun 22, 2010 - 11:45 AM)  I've always cut my bump stops in half. Works fine. But looks like it hasn't fully settle yet. Give it another week. And if what people are saying is true about tanabe springs, then ill just get coilovers. Don't want anything less than 1.8". haha i had a set of used ksport coils... hated them apparently the pillow mounts were blown and there was some cross threading. i might go back to coils some day. idk i am indecisive! lol -------------------- |

ground control coils are becoming tempting
