Coilovers and wide tires
do coilovers take up less space inside the wheel well and if so can I put on a wider tire such as 8.5-9.0? What is "rolling the fender"? And how do your coilovers compare in comfort to the stock suspension?
Apexi vs. stock
Nex vs. stock
Tiens vs. stock
Zeal vs. stock
BTW I have an '02 TL-S

Re: Coilovers and wide tires
No, they take up more room, and leave less clearance between the sway bar link and the dampner in the rear. At least that is the case with the Zeal B6s.

Jadia4, I don't think you can put anything wider than 8 in. You're most likely to rub.
Nex and Apexi coilovers are just height adjustable, but people w/ them say they still have a good ride. The zeals and teins are both height and ride adustable. So I think you can make them ride as smooth as stock also.
