Awesome. I still wouldn't recommend that anyone else do it.

This isn't something that you'll notice later. When you're installing them, you have a VERY VERY good chance of breaking off the top nut if you use an impact. If you don't break it, no worries.

These coils are really good too! I was planning on getting these coils:

KW Suspension V3

but if everybody is saying these ST coils are also pretty good, I might get these instead like how I posted in my thread:

If I decided to get these coils and run 18x9.5 Rota Grid - Deep Red (5x100/e38/73) rims, drop my ride 35mm and get 255.35.18 on all 4 without any rub or buying any camber kits or any rear adjustable control arm? Could I just install these ST coils drop it 1.3 inches with those rims and be good without anything else?

Just wondering because with the Kw V3 coils they have adjustable cambers in front and I would need a rear adjustable control arm in the back, so with these ST's would I need anything at all?

You will EVENTUALLY need rear LCA if you want to dial in rear camber. It ends up pretty good naturally though.

Give us a shout if you want a price on the ST, we are running a sale.

Ok kool! So for the front, I wouldn't need anything but in the back I would need a pair of this ONLY right?

SPC Performance Adjustable LCA

Blah brain fart, ST coilovers slot isn't huge, might need some type of camber bolt or camber plates to get to where you want on front camber.

You couldn't run 255 all around? And do you have camber bolts installed in the front wheels and Adjustable Lower Control Arm in the back?

If I could do it again I'd run 255's all the way around. I got plenty of front camber with the stock bolts and slotted upper mounting holes on the ST's. I have not put my rear LCA's on yet though.

What would you need to do to run 255 all around?

Because from what I know, you don't need camber bolts in the front since you can adjust the front just like the KWs

you wouldn't need to do anything. I thiught I might had rubbing issues so I went with a 245 but that's not the case.

Koo that what I thought

ya because the ST Coils allow you to adjust the front, all you need is LCA for the back and you're good

What up guys, finally joining the ST convo. Here's how she sits right now. Put the wheels and coils on during the Superbowl, and I'm loving the new look.

@bobsacamenoh... You wanted pics of how those wheels turned out. They look fresh to death man, thanks again.
