Sup Gollum... I see you decided to go with the Teins. Like i was telling you before i don't know a lot of people with 6th gens that have them the majority has either Progress or Eibach. But i'm very curious about the results. Let me know how the GR2's ride. I'm think about getting them for my setup too. After my drop i kinda regret a little not upgrading the struts/shocks. Good luck with the install man. Definitely post some good pics after the drop.

Good luck with the drop man. Lemme know how it turns out and how the ride is on the GR2's? I'm currently on D2 Coilovers but I have Tein S. Techs that I plan on putting on here in the next few weeks and I need to buy some struts and shocks because the stockers are gone so I'm curious how the Teins and GR2's work together..

good luck.
fwiw gr2s are just OEM replacements and really shouldn't be used on drop springs...

then your sig lies? KYB Struts/Mounts

i'm sure they will work(stocks work fine for a bit) but for a little more money you can get some decent struts that was my point...

KYB's aren't stock.

They're an alternative with a less "bottoming out" feel.

Cattman/Progress all recommend them to replace OEM.



Do you have a 6th gen yet..?
