- Sat Dec 01, 2007 6:53 pm #32007 they are ok but as Graham said, they dont go really low but low enuff to get a good look.

but......... you can get better coilovers than the TEIN Basics for less money. i dont know how much the TEIN Basics are state side but we sell the for £400

now for £375 you can get a set of D2 coilovers which are hight and damping adjustable.

They should go pretty low. up or down 3"s i think.


The basics are about 700-750 in the states most of the time. I got my Ksports which are just like the D2s for 560 shipped.
