Haha thanks man! Using Tein Super Compact Coilovers. There is more room to drop but i don't want to because of our street here in Manila. Plus i usually have passengers with lots of cargo.

Astig bro, how is the ride compare to stock? Please PM me how much you score the coilover and who installed? I'm looking in replacing my stock coils but really not decided if i go coilover or spring. hehehe. Tsaka ano na ground clearance mo? worried kasi ako my wife drives the car and with all the humps in BF Homes baka di na sya pumayag sa ibang mods suggestions ko. (Traumatized). Really wanted to go as low as possible.

This Fit is why I chose 17's over 16's... so so clean.

Here is mine. Tein S-Tech springs and the wheels are Enkei rpf1 17x7 with 43 offset. The tires are 205 40 17. My next set will be 205 45 17. I really like the look and the comfortable ride.

Thanks. Yeah, stock struts. The ride is close to stock and comfortable. If you look on their website they say that they are designed to work with the stock struts. I did not measure how much lower it got, but I think it looks really good with the rim/tire set up I have. My next set off tires will be 45 series to get rid of some more gap.

most of suspension companies say that their springs are designed to be worked with oem struts/ shocks. and i hope tein does mean it.
how is the ride on high speeds ?
i was opting for swifts, but their drop isn't enough for me.
which spring is 2nd best to be worked with stock shocks after swifts ?
abybody ?

Just installed my Twin basis coilovers, these are really comfortable coilovers. I can go 1" lower then this but I carry heavy items from time to time so I had to be realistic.
