I am going to buy tein super street damping coilovers for my car soon. I need to know if I am going to need other supplies besides what comes with the kit. After the coilovers are installed, is there going to be any problems having the car aligned? I do not know much about suspension, so please bare with me. I will also be adding 17"x7" Falken Torque 5 rims, with a offset of 40... I want to get the rear tires almost even with the wheel wells. What size tires(falken tires) and spacers should I get to do this? Also, does anyone know where I can find Tein SS coilovers at a good price($1200 or less)? Any help or opinions would be great. This is my second post on this site, but ive been watching all you guys for over 6 months now. I think this is the best celica site out there, and i believe this is where all the tallent is.

That offset won't sit the wheels flush to the fender (something like 32-35mm will). It'll still be tucked in. IMO... if you don't plan on racing... you shouldn't spend 1200 for suspension you'll only use for "looking lowered". Buy some ground controls and call it good if you want coilovers... otherwise some lowering springs is plently. FYI... full coilover suspension doesn't make the car ride better lower... it'll ride rougher because the spring rates and dampening isn't designed for mild street use.
