Are u "slammed"? I want a set of coilovers, but I would be dropping it about 2.5". I am concerned that without adjustable dampening, I may bottom out being that low. Its a daily driver, and I don't wanna bottom out going over dips and such, especially during highway driving. I would get the type 2s, but I am cheap, and don't wanna spend extra loot, if the type 1s will suffice and if I don't have to. Any input would be appreciated TIA.

i wouldnt slam it that low because on our cars the oil pan is really low. 2

They are saying u can drop it pretty low, and its dampered enough not to bottom out....from what I read....we will see I guess, bc I ordered them......

Hey anyone with HT-1. I was wondering about the ride quality compared to stock. Also is the minimum drop actually 1.5"? reason I ask is because that's the max I wanna drop.

i just got my ht-spec type 1s installed with the regular springs. the ride quality is pretty much near stock imo. its not stiff or bouncy at all.

i'm also dropped about 1.5inch or so. well actually i got about a 1.5 to 2 finger gap all around so i'm guessing that's more about 1.7-2inch drop.

the coilovers are great and definitely noticeably more stable when taking sharp turns at slow or high speeds. before i could feel the whole weight of the car shift and the car will actually lean with the shift of momentum.

now with the new coilovers its alot less noticeable. car feels great when cornering or just regular driving. as for regular bumps n such they aren't bad at all..

i'm riding on oem 17" wheels with 235/45s if that helps you any at all..

Its def more firm than stock... over large bumps or speed bumps you'll get jerked around a little. Its not unbearable, but noticeable

got them on, im tuckin a lil' tire 245/35/19...no rubbing, or bottoming out. These ride like a dream..I guess my old shocks were just really worn out or something.

Look at my Progress Thread. I have 20s with HT1 and they drop the car alot. I have it kinda maxed out on how height i can go with it.
