Hey guys I have tanabe df210 springs coming to me right now with kyb gr2 struts but I'm a little concerned. My 6gc wheels and tires are off a 7gc gts wheels and tires... Which are 16" wheels if I'm correct... Now the tanabe df210 says they drop 2.2" front and 1.5" rear. Will my front wheels be hitting my chassis? I measured it but it seems really close and it's not an exact exact measurement so I'm just wondering if anyone else did this kind of drop and will I make it without hitting the chassis? Any pictures?
Thanks Gerald |

Another question popped into mind!
I just had a friend told me that with that large of a drop; 2.2" the KYB Gr-2's might not be able to sustain the shocks. Is that true? Like it doesn't absorb enough causing the shocks to blow... But I'm guessing Kaos, that you've had the Tanabe DF210s + KYB Gr-2s for a while right? Also; Will I be needing Bumpstops; is this gonna bottom out? I will be installing tomorrow.
