These are the street basis for the 2009-2013 GE correct?

Why are you selling? I'd be interested in them though. I'm in Las Vegas, NV.

So, I'm selling them because they are softer than I would like. I think I want something sportier. The reviews left by other users are basically correct: reduced body roll by about 50%, less pitching and sway side to side, handles noticeably better, more stable feeling, and remarkably comfortable. This is really the suspension that the base FIT should have come with from the factory. HOWEVER, it's NOT sporty

I'm really hoping for NYC pick up to be honest.

Do you have an IG? I feel like we should do a Fit meet up here in Vegas!

Also show us some pics of your GD's! I miss my old GD.

Can you tell me the extended length of the rear shocks and also the compressed length (the length of the shock when the piston is compressed down all the way).

To prevent the rear bottoming out when lowered with passengers.

The street basis rear have max drop of 2.5"...at this drop they only have about 1" max stroke before hitting bumpstop.

Fronts at full drop (also 2.5" drop") have maybe 1/2" of stroke before hitting bump stop.

Rode the street basis for 3 years lmk if have any other questions. Just swapped to bc racing yesterday.

Ps... The springs are so soft... if you have four people in your car average size you'll absolutely be riding on bump stops...if fully dropped 2.5".

Highy recommend not lowering these more than -1.75" to maintain ride quality.

I think you may be focusing onthe wrong thing here, the damper length doesn't matter. They're appropriate for the GE8.

You can adjust the height via spring preloaded.



I experimented at about -2 inches to -1 inch. The difference in feel and handling didn't vary too much, but -2 did feel a little tighter.



I would adjust these according to your road condition: give yourself enough ground clearance for your tire/wheel setup.
