Going to drop my Fit soon ...Need feedback.
Hi to all.Very soon i will install T1R-S coil Springs and have some questions. Hope some one can help me.Did i need camber bolts to align the car?Need them or not?About the bump stops....Did i really need to cut them?I want to be sure about this things.Any help is welcome.
Need to know specs of your wheel and tire setup and how many inches those springs will drop it.
Usually you will need to cut your front bump stops by however many inches you are lowering it. I didn't find it necessary to cut my rear bump stops but some people do anyways.
A very important tip when lowering it is to use bungee cords to keep the front axle from popping out, you'll save yourself a lot of trouble.

T1-R should be about 1.4-1.5 inches drop all around. your wheels were 17x7 right? and judging by the picture, they are somewhere around +40 offset.
I dont not think you will need camber bolts, but you will probably rub a little up front so its up to you. Rears are non-adjustable so thats a non-issue.
Agree with Vanct as well, front bump-stops are a must cut, rears are ok without cutting.
And follow that DIY to the letter buddy
