Heres Some Pics Of My G W/ Tein S-Techs, LEmme Kno what u guys think.........

 

Last Ones The "Other" Whip

 

Drop looks good- how's the ride quality?

 

So you lowered your X with S-Techs for the RWD Sedan. I thought it was not advisable to do this on AWD. How does it ride now ?
I think I will wait til someone makes a spring specifically for the X before lowering my X.

 

im pretty sure the springs are all the same. its the coilovers that wont work.

aam - car looks sweet. did you or are you doing a camber kit?

 

Car rides almost the same in my opinion, just a litte harsher w/ bumps on back roads.........i may have to get a camber kit, but im not sure, im waiting for my Asanti's to come in in a few weeks, one they come in i have to check the fittment anyways because i went w/ a staggered setup........19x8 in the front and 19x9.5 in the back and im gonna be runnin 235s in the front and 275s in the rear.........

 

you really need some rims...make those asanti's come faster

 

Oh i know, ive been waiting for so long it seems.........i cant wait to see the 4 inch lip in the back........

 

I would be using the search key re:stagger on an X. I heard that's bad news.

 

Stagger on an X not a good idea. The AWD system is electronically controlled. wider tire in the rear = more contact patch = more traction in the rear = AWD system not functioning properly

 

guess im a guinea pig......i dont kno anyone who has tried it and all i kno is that my dad has AWD porsches and he has no problems w/ staggered rims.......as long as the overall diameter is the same

 

You absolutely need a camber kit without a doubt. Especially if you used RWD springs to lower your X. Your alignment must be really bad right now.

As for the staggered fitment, you will have problems with the AWD. I would get same size all around.

 

yup, i kno, but like i said i have to wait for my rims to get here to see how the fitment is, i may only need to get ones for the front because i dont know how much a 275 in the rear will stick out........

 

I had s-techs on my 2k2 max. It was absolutely the worst ride ever. Paired with kybgr2's it was a good ride on perfectly smooth roads. Add in some imperfections and a curve and bouncy bouncy here we come. Glad your experience is different.

Well I must admit it had an aggressive look and complimented the 19's that were on there. Couldnt beat the look.

 

I love my Tein S-Techs,yeah the ride is a little stiffer, but the handling is from day to night
