How long have you installed your new springs? It might go a bit lower.
|
I have only driven about 20 miles since I put them on. I really like where it sits now so I hope it doesn't go much lower if any.
|
what springs did you use?
looks a little raked, the front seem a bit lower than the rear. |
That looks really good!
|
Looks sweet!!! i had my springs installed about 3 months ago and they haven't dropped by much since the initial install.
Curious as to which springs you used. |
I'm not Spanish, but that's muy caliente....:thumbsup:
|
:thumbsup:

They are the Tein HTech springs. Only $229 from Excelerate Performance. I think for the money it is a pretty good mod.
|
Hey, Sgt. Your car looks great!
I was considering a similar setup. Did you end up replacing your shocks when you installed the H-Techs? Also, have you noticed any rubbing issues or anything else since the install? |

I only have about 10k miles on my TL so I didn't replace the struts. There's been no rubbing or issues of any kind. I did have it alligned and the shop said the back was fine and the front was only off a little.
|
I am also interested in this question as well because I don't think I am ready to shell out $800+ to get some Coilovers. This drop looks sufficient enough to be honest. It has just the look I'd be going for too. Too bad I have almost 60,000 miles on my OEM shocks because now I have to make the tough call to replace them if I'd get the springs or not.
|
Looks really good man. I'm just really hesitant because I don't know if it will rub when I have people in the car.
|
I envy the look but I promised myself...but more importantly my wife that I wouldn't install any lowering kit on my TL. :(
Looks great keep us updated how the shocks hold up, I ran H-tech springs on my 2005 TSX oem shocks for a long while without issue. |

Very nice, conservative drop. Maybe they'll settle a little bit more.
|
Curious where and how much did it cost to install the springs? How long did it take liking the drop :thumbsup:
|
How many inches was the drop do you think? And I would also like to know how the ride is. I may save up for coilovers...

If I ever get the wife to agree to letting me do this, that is what I would do because I need to pinch every penny of the build with her. |

I was super hesitant because I didn't want to hurt the ride, but honestly I can't tell the difference in the ride from the oem springs. The drop has settled a little and I would say I wouldn't want to go any lower myself. They were super easy to install but if I had over 50k miles on my car I would go ahead and replace the struts.

Looks so much better.
|
Perfect! Looks like a sport package type of drop.

Nice drop op. |
I will have to agree with you regarding the warranty.
Bear with me. Kindly link me to a DIY thread for lowering spring install.I lowered my 8th gen civic coupe before but would love to do as much research as I can for my 4g TL. Thanks alot and all the best. |
warranty wont be ruined if you bring it back to dealer with OEM parts on..
|
Sgt, Whats the wheel and tire size you're running there?
|
Nice drop, its conservative yet gives it an aggressive stance. Something I would do myself. Those wheels look great too.
