Tein - S Tech Springs for the Jazz

[Iceman888uk]

Hi I was wonding if any one can help!! I'm thinking to purchasing Tein - S Tech Springs. There are 40mm front and 35mm rear. But only been tested on 195/55/15 by Tein . My wheels are 205/40/17. Will my rear wheels touch my body work? :!:

[petrovski]

I do not think that it will lower it enough for the wheels to be near the guards.

I guess you could measure 35mm and 40mm down from the guards and see if it even reaches the level of the top of the tires.

anyway i think it shouldnt be a problem

Pete :)

[TypeG]

yes i am quite sure u will touch the guard as my previous tyres doest that. =)
if 5 ppl sitting at the back, good luck to u

[Iceman888uk]

Did you change the wheels? or do any mods?

[Jus-10]

It will all come down to the off-set of the wheels.

I'm running 16 inch rims lowered all the way on TEIN coilovers and it doesn't scrub at all.

[petrovski]

oh yeah im 70mm lowered an not scrubbing . . . . just scraping :rolleyes:

carbon fibre strut bar.... wow..... please show a pic..... i'm interested.....

my jazz is running on the stock alloy rim.. 15' that is.. do u guys know how much can i lower it without scratching the guard??? coz u know the jazz is quite tall.. i reckon lowering by 30mm wouldn't even look like the car is lowered (still a big gap between the wheel and the side panels)... or am i wrong?

[Iceman888uk]

S -Tech say it is a 30mm drop so the rear wheels will not rub the rear arches. I hope it true fitting it on Saturday................... I let you know.

[Jus-10]

On stock rims, they will never touch anything no matter how low you go (on the standard shocks anyway)

Iceman - where abouts in the UK are you from?

[Iceman888uk]

I'm from London. Ive put the springs and they make the car low. Plus it do'es not touch the body work.

Iceman888uk: can you post a picture of your Jazz.. I want to see how low it is. I'm considering buying this springs aswell. How is the ride?

[TypeG]

buy Kings springs if u go for this Stech
they feel the same and Kings springs are a lot cheaper.

do they??? Cause I'm considering TEIN S-TECH or TEIN SUPER WAGONS if the money permits..

Zi of JDMYARD messaged me the other night on MSN and said he's got SPOON lowered springs in stock... :)

[TypeG]

to be honest, go for coilover, if not, just get Kings springs until u have enough for coilover consider coilover is now only cost $11XX and they springs cost like $400+.
I have been told by that but I think is kind of right since I sat on Jazz with Kings Springs. It feels great and even the same as my kg/mm before.

Thanks for the info TypeG.... do you have pictures of you Jazz with the KG/MM springs? I just want to see the height of the car in relation to the wheel arches and the top of the wheels. I don't want any problems with rubbing in the guards and stuff, you know what i mean... I'm planning to get 15" or 16" rims.

[TypeG]

go to my photo gallery below my sign
there are many pic there

[Jus-10]

Ahh I love London...was there in Feb.

Post up some pics of your car with the springs in!

[GU357]

looks like overall wheel side will be abt the same.
dont worry they r height adjustable anyway, so i hear.
