Dude, I think you maybe jacked something up....at all 4 corners the spring pearch is supposed to be set at 1.25". This more than halfway down the threads, and for the height you have you would have had to drop the coilovers down more....how could it be as high as possible? I install these all the time. You have me really confused.

the rears.. the spring is all the way in the hat, and i actually gave the spring a couple of cranks down on the perch to compress the spring alittle more, hopeing to get alittle more highth out of the rears.
so yes.. the rears are offically as high as they will go.. the fronts, i could actually raise more, but my drop would be uneven.
i can take pics if anyone is really interested.

I just realized that your tires are 1/2" taller than stock ones. That is why it fills out the fender so much and looks so low......nm, I am cool.
But it looks pretty deceiving. You car looks really low when you look at the tire gap. Really it is not that low.

Who did the install? Was it a shop or you. Im not doubting your car knowledge or common sense, but are u sure that didnt confuse the front springs with the rear ones. They are visually differnt so they cant be mixed up but it can happen.
Im only wondering cuz Im thinkin of gettin SS's but if the rear perch is on the highest setting I dont want the rear to be that low.

i installed it.. but quite frankly.. i don't think you can screw it up.. regaurdless if you put the spring in upside down, its still going to have the same weight on it...
and of course the fronts are diff than the rears.. its just the way it is.
the Teins are a great ride.. i don't regret it 1 bit. but i would of though the susspension would of left the final result alittle higher.

Teins come with the springs and shocks already matched up. And think about it....if he had done that, he would need to spin the fronts all the way up, and the rears would have to go down more. And it would ride like crap.
His images are decieving, and I would like to see inside his wheelwell. I would not buy based on this review...buy based on the 100s of other reviews here.
I am putting some SS on a TSX later today. I will take some pics.
