but like Jive Turkey said, the ST's are softer than other "stance" coilovers which are pretty much just for looks and dont give a shit about handling and ride quality.

I only ended up with -1.9 and -1.5 on my car with ST's

damn you had a 0.4 difference? -1.9 sounds about right with just the slotted hole though.

Yeah...I was surprised it was off by so much.

I am running 18x9+35 245/40 and 265/35 stock suspension. I am about to install Tein Street coilovers, will I be rubbin badly? I plan to leave about a 1 finger gap.

I have Stance coilovers and I am very happy with them. 6k front 7k rear. Full drop on 18s with 225/45/18 just rub a bit in front at full lock. Back edge of rears rub because my caster is way off. Adjustable trailing arms will fix that. Then the rears won't rub at all. No fender roll. Great service at Stance.

Ps I autocross with the stock rims(new tires) with 0 problems so NO, they don't trash your handling. The ride is a little bumpier but you gotta pay to play right?

I'm pretty much a millimeter gap between the front fenders on 17x9 et10 on 235/40/17 Federals which are pretty much 245's. I Run -3 degrees camber with Figs Poly damper spacers and get no rub at all now.
