Need pics of Tein Basics on a Fit
I'm 90% decided I want these coilovers, but I would like to see the stance. Anyone have these? I really only see people running Skunk2 or T1R..

I am on Tein Basics and I would like for them to sit a little lower, but I am satisfied with them for now.

well when you've been running around on Vogtland springs with a 3" lift in the rear, any coilover setup would be amazing. I really like them because they are green and black, and I buy anything that's green and black. Those are my colors, so I don't think I could go wrong with these. I just need to find a used set. $1100 is pretty steep for me

Its nice, but you could get springs and save $xxx amounts of money.
Let me do a search, theres an SSM on blades that posted a while back. Lowest Ive ever seen Teins sit.
I never asked him what he did though.

true. skunk2's have more adjustablility and they are only 150-200bucks more...but i'm pretty sure its safe to say that the teins don't ride as rough.
i personally would rather have the s-tech springs with some tr1 dampers. there is a pic of someone with an MR fit and the stance was nice, and its cheaper.

The D2's are right around $900 new and they have a lot more adjustability than the Teins do. Also, the D2's offer front camber adjustment
