***Finally!!! Bilstein B14/PSS Coilovers*** - Page 15 - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Does anyone with these coilovers have a pic on what they are like on their lowest setting. I'm almost ready to pull the trigger on a set of these but worried it's not going to be low enough for my desired look.

thx

Ive already ordered and installed my B14s, is it possible to get a higher spring rate spring for them separate?

How are the rears? Any issues with the adjuster knobs and interference with the interior panels??

got the b14 installed on 6/20/15
the first time driving with them was a little disappointing, ride was pretty bumpy at speeds under 30mph
the rears were left at factory setting and the fronts were lowered all the way for easy installation (used stock top hats)
left it like that for a few days for it to "settle" then adjusted it to 5 threads all around from lowest
got an alignment and now it rides WAY better
i had stock struts with swift frs spec springs(1in drop). the dampening is a lot better now, everything feels so much smoother

both front fender to ground is 25in
both rear fender to ground is 25 1/4in
its about 1.5 in drop from stock

I have the Swift BRZ springs, thinking about swapping over to these or the ST coilovers. ST are much cheaper obviously but they use a twin tube instead of monotube like the Bilstein. I wish somebody around had both but can anybody compare ride quality between the two?
