    Megan Coilover susp trouble with rear

    Hello,

    i'm having trouble dumping my rears (to get it lower than what it is now). i've seen people having the same set up as me but they are hella dump... i'm trying to get my rear lower.

    i've taken out the adjusters already and seems to be riding high. Am i suppose to adjust the strut too?

    please help... :(:(
    here's some pictures of it right now. if anyone can assist me

    spec:
    megan easy street coilovers
    spring rate at 135L x 8kg
    rim size: 16 inch

      1. You have an early model with higher rear wheel arches
      2. You didn't order a shorter rear spring to compensate for this.

      Friend has the same coils on his early model and we made sure to get a shorter rear spring to prevent this and have usable adjustability.

            get rid of the spring pads, just use the inner sleeve part to center the spring and remove the rest (cut up a spare set) and remove the adjuster if it adds to stack height (and if you can keep the spring centered)

            +1 for what size tires, I run undersize 205/50/15s and yours look really small even to me.

                    do you have any down travel now? you have to adjust the shocks, they're probably holding the car up.

                          Your tires look kinda under size.
                          Bought parts from me before? leave your feedback here

                            Your tire looks like a 205/40 which would be way undersized. I'm running a taller 6" 8k springs with 205/50/15s and it sits lower. Even with it being a late model should not be that much of a difference.

                            Your signature picture has been removed since it contained the Photobucket "upgrade your account" image.

                              it's an early model. converted.
