Tein Basics on Sedan

I have a 2005 sedan 6spd. I am considering the Tein Basic Coilovers. Does anyone have any pics of the ride height? I would also like to know what you think of the performance/reliability of this product. Any other comments are welcomed as well. HAPPY 4th!!!

they're height adjustable. they are very popular here on coupes and sedans. the ride quality will be a little more harsh than the stock coupe sport suspension.

Will I have any rubbing or issues with alignment with the Tein Basics on my sedan?

It all depends on how low you want to go. Rubbing issues come from having the wrong offsets or wrong size wheels/tires.

Here's a picture of my sedan with Basics, dropped ALL the way up front and 2 turns left in the back. It's about a 3" drop.

The camber right now is at -2.8/2.9 F and -2.9 on both sides of the rear. I have a rear camber/toe kit and can get back within spec in the rear. I havent gotten a front camber kit yet though. If you drop it any lower than an inch the alignment will be thrown out of spec for the most part.
