Getting T1R S-Coil springs on my BOM

I just dropped $200 on them and I felt like photoshopping a pic. i'm pretty excited.... the stock ride height and wheel gap are soooooooooooooooo annoying!

yeah i'm getting the V2..

i guess these are the V1s

supposedly the V2 are 1mm lower in the front and 11mm lower in the rear than the V1s... i don't feel like converting

i know it is going to be a stiff ride which i don't mind but i am curious if my dampers will be less prone to wear out because they are such stiff springs. it could be the complete opposite.. but i know they're going to wear out faster, by the time that happens i'll just go with coilovers or new dampers

haha coilovers would be very nice... i really don't ever see anyone with these springs on here for some reason...

i haven't been on here for a long time, your fit is looking really nice... just get that passenger side a little lower
