Suspension Advice & Pic Request - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Chowderrr · 02-13-2017, 11:54 PM

Hey guys quick introduction! This is my first time using a forum ever so bare with me. I've had my BRZ for almost 10 months now. She is my daily driver and will be going through a few winters.

I have RPF1s in 17x9 +35 and bought 235/45/17 tires off my friend for really cheap. I am not sure if I should mount the tires on and rock the stock height. Or sell the tires and go straight to coilovers for no more than $1,600. I know I won't
be happy with my wheels sitting stock height. The dilemma with coilovers is I live in upstate NY and the roads are TERRIBLE here. I had K sports on my old car which lasted 2 years. So I would need the most durable coilovers possible.

Pic request: If anybody has 235/45/17 on a 9" wheel Stock Height, I'd love to see it!!!

Terrible roads, look into Tein Flex A. They have that hydraulic thing that makes it a lot more comfortable.

You can go Flex Z theyre comfortable too but I don't have very many bad roads in my area. Looks like the Flex A is within your budget.
