Don't forget the control arms people get just because they're a different color.

@indesign scoop, good find! That's the first pic I've seen of what must be the new TRD S/E coming this July. We should know pricing next month but given the content like BBK, coilovers, 18" forged wheels and PSS tires, Recaros (maybe), exhaust, chassis bracing everywhere, body kit, gauge package and special paint, we might be seeing close to $40K. Anything under $34K will be very tempting.

The pic looks to be from the Scion display at the Long Beach GP event this week and next weekend. IndyCar and the United Sports Car series will run plus supporting events like the Pro-Celebrity race where they all drive TRD modified FR-S's.

I was told I needed them for the size wheels I wanted..
Oooh tell me the one that told me doesn't know what he talking about. Lol jokes.

Does it not matter I have lowering springs then if I run 17x9 +35?

You'll be fine I have 18x9 +36 with a 1 inch drop in springs I poke a little but not much

17x9 +35 is perfectly fine with springs. If certain wheel sizes REQUIRED coilovers, nobody would be able to sell wheels OR coilovers.

If you want to know what you need, call Turn In Concepts at (513) 860-3508. Tell them your wheel size and what you use your car for (track, daily, dates with hot babes, all of the above), answer any questions they ask you, and then buy exactly what they tell you to buy. Make sure to tell them that someone told you you NEEDED coilovers, they'll get a good laugh out of it.

I try to operate under the assumption that everyone on the internet is a millionaire who bangs supermodels.

If it's just for looks and daily driving, you DEFINITELY don't need coilovers. I like the RCE Yellows but they may not drop enough for you (3/4"). Seriously, call TIC tomorrow and get a recommendation.

I have 18x9.5 e38 with 255 35s on speedline spring and I do not rub even on full crank. I have a little front poke but the rears are nice and tucked running -1.6 degrees of camber. I would camber the fronts but im really close to the perch already.

U should have zero troubles.

[Missy]

Anyone know someone with the same if not similar set up?
I wanna be 100% before I make any moves.
