KONI Yellow and Tein s-techs

Installed them on friday.


WHAT A GREAT RIDE!!! so much better than stock shocks..haha
anyone looking for shocks and spring combo, I would like to recommend this set up.

the only thing is that every time I take a turn, my fender would rub on the tire.



Any sugestions on how to get rid of that would be great.

Got the same set up. Mine seems to be rubbing on one side only, and I think it's the fender lining it is rubbing because that one side is starting to come down a bit. But I agree. I had coilovers before and this is much better

So, what will you be doing? Rolling the fender? would Lower sway bars help? I have a hatch.

Nothing as of yet as it doesn't rub all the time, only in extreme turns to the left

Offset should be the same as mine. What do you have?
