Dropped/lowered/slammed 2G TSX - Pictures, Details, Reviews-ublqy1m.jpg
Attachment 103370


1. Megan Street Series Coilovers - No idea on exact ride height, haven't measured.
2. Don't know the exact camber specs, but it isn't too much.
3. All four corners rolled.
4. VIP Modular VRC13 19x9.5 +15 (5mm spacers all around) painted a custom copper color.
5. (2) General G-MAX 225/35/19 Rear - (2) Achilles ATR Sport 225/35/19 Front
6. Rides surprisingly well considering the wheel/tire setup. No rubbing at all, the coilovers are great! No bottoming out whatsoever, just a intermittent clunking sound in the front when going over certain bumps, not all. Still trying to diagnose the issue, but other than that - no complaints!

Thanks! I'm not too sure what they retail for as I bought them used and refinished them. You may want to check with vipmodular. I believe they go for ~$1400 a set without tires.

Lol not exactly, took it outside the best alignment shop in Toronto. You can see it in the background. But it's close to downtown where the houses are close to a million so not close to the ghetto by any means, although the industrial area usually look it.

  1. Tein Street advance coilovers
  2. not sure of actual drop but at least 2"s+ front and rear
  3. No camber adjustments
  4. No fender modifications
  5. 18"x8" wheels with 235\40\18 tires
  6. Suspension rides as comfortable and maybe better than OEM.

I'm really digging your set up bro. I just started working on my TSX got some big plans for it. But i was wondering how hard was it for you to roll and pull your fenders?

It wasn't hard at all with the right stuff.. I only did the rears I didn't touch the fronts at all.. Just whatever you do you need a heat gun to avoid paint cracking

Lowered on Tein Street Advance with Avant Garde m540 19x9.5 all around wrapped with 225/35/19. 10mm Spacers in rear with all fenders rolled.

I think I've lowered it a little more in the front and back since this picture was taken. Want to be lower but cannot clear my driveway without the tire hitting the fender when i turn up
