Tein Basic Coil-Over on 20's
I would like to purchase the Tein Basic Coil-Over setup. The shop responsible for the installation of my Eibach Sway Bars told me I need tires with a sidewall of 30. The shop responsible for the installation of my wheels/tires used 35s because VDC would freak out with 20" wheels and a sidewall smaller than 35. Any thoughts or suggestions? Does anybody have 20" wheels, a sidewall of 35 on the tires, and the Tein Basic Coil-Over setup? Any clearance issues? I'll upload pics of the front and rear clearance tonight, since I'm currently working. :D
Wheels: Front 20" 8.5 Rear 20" 9.5 Tires: Front 245/35/ZR20 Rear 275/35/ZR20 |
Coupe or sedan?

i have a 2006 6mt coupe with 20x8.5/20x10 with 245/35/20 fronts and 275/30/20's on the back and I have no problems either.
Whoever said a 30 series sidewall would mess up your VDC is retarted. If diameter has anything to do with VDC, which I dont think it does unless its a drastic change, Then the overall diameter would have to be the same as stock. Now if you take a look at my tire/rim sizes they are actually the same exact overall diameter of the stock 19" wheels my car came with. your 35 rear sidewall might cause a rubbing issue but then again Tein basics are coilovers!!! Which means that they are adjustable. Install them, drop it down low, see if ti rubs, if they DO rub then raise them a hair or 2 until they dont rub. |
Thanks for the input. I ordered the tein coil-overs today. The install will take place saturday in the a.m. I'll make sure to have some before and after pics.
