QuestionMark is on a distinguished road
[quote=championjeep;114796]I agree that was my favorite too. I followed his thread on SL and was sad when he sold those 002's.

Question Mark how did you get the fronts to settle so much? It seems to be alot lower than most with the 210's. I was going to run Echo struts to hopefully get it that low.

Thanks championjeep! The fronts settled alot because to make a long story short, a body shop who repaired the front suspension, did not reinstall the bumpstops. The fronts sagged and I replaced the struts and reinstalled the bumpstops. Now I'm stuck with a nice ride height...

Re: pics please!! xbs dropped on tanabe df210s

Rolling the fender is not always needed on a 15x8 it just depends on the offset of the wheel. I have a 15x8 +15et and there is no problems.

Re: pics please!! xbs dropped on tanabe df210s

I'm getting my DF210's soon. What else do I need? 215/40/R17 installed already. Do I need spacers or cams? Do I need coilovers or can I use my stock shocks? Noob, sorry!

Sorry, I meant camber not cams!

Re: pics please!! xbs dropped on tanabe df210s

You will be fine with stock shocks. We need to know the size of the rim and offset to know if you will rub. I have df210's with Toyota Echo struts (gets an extra 1/2") stock rear shocks and the car rides so much better than stock. You will definitely like the ride.


As for coilovers its another form of suspension. You are able to adjust the height to your liking. You would have to get rid of your springs to run coilovers.
