Tein S-Tech's are on!

The weather didn't turn out so great -- thunderstorms were starting to build up -- but after taking the time to wash up my MSP this morning, I went out anyway for a lil' photoshoot.

Tein S-Tech springs were installed yesterday, so the car's probably not QUITE as low as it's gonna go, as I doubt the springs have settled fully. But still, you'll get the idea.

As always, the thumbnails that look like blurs of nothing actually ARE photos.

Comments welcome!

.. An 'informational' shot, I guess. For those that just want a simple, straight-up photo to see the difference in height. Excuse my ugly parking lot.

Definitely. Did you have them installed and did you get an alignment done afterwards?

A friend and I installed 'em. And I have an alignment scheduled on Monday.

nice, what size tires you have on there?
The wheels are 18" x 7.5" and the tires are 215/35/18. The ride's now kinda harsh on my ass, haha.


Thanks for the props, guys!
 
Nice how long did the install go? I know you think I am stealing your ideas haha but I would like to get the s-techs.

Your car looks great.

Do you have any rubbing?
 
Looks awesome, I like the Titanium with the black tint and black rims, that sweet, you have carbon fiber tails too right..........

OMG, you really ARE gankin' all my plans, hahahaha. S'cool, tho'. But the install took roughly three hours. And as of right now, no rubbing .. that's part of the reason I went with the S-Tech's, cause of the varience in front and back lowering height (it evened everything out, believe it or not), and I didn't want anything TOO drastic so that I can avoid rub.

Yup, I have carbon fiber tails. And just wait till I get my carbon fiber hood and front grill and mirror covers and downforcers on. :D

Looks good, and pretty even, despite what you said.
Poo on you, sir! .. You can't see it all THAT much in the photos, but if you look in that last one in my parking lot, the back IS just a lil' bit higher than the front -- just like I said. But I'm picky as hell about it, so maybe only I can see it, heh.
 
I got a Blue Speed, so we still way different and and aftermarket tails won't touch my speed hehe.

Damn it, I had another Q but I forgot.

So I will just say car looks hot again.

Nope, no rubbing .. then again, I haven't had a fully loaded car yet, so that's gonna be a totally different story.

what wheels are those? They're really nice!
Thanks! Wheels are Motegi DP6 in gunmetal with a polished lip.
 
looks good! ive had the s-tech's with 17" rims and 205/40 tires on for about a year now.. the rear rubs when I have 2 (somewhat light) people in the back (notcool) and thats AFTER I take out my subs
