Coz judging from the stock tension rods, he's probably on stock arms and just threw the Coilovers on with the lowest setting. :|

Yeah. Pretty much. Buttttt the coilovers aren't on the lowest setting.
Even if I ran less camber, still not enough poke.

Less camber 5 mil spacers, I think you'd be surprised.

When I got my alingment I went from -4 to -2 degrees of camber and it was ridiculous the difference it made in my fitment.

I can only go so far with camber on stock shit. I think it might already be maxed out on camber.

All of them should go low enough. IE: So low you wont be able to leave your driveway or have any suspension movement.

Stance owners are going to say Stance goes the lowest.
PBM owners are going to say PBM goes the lowest.
Fortune Auto owners are going to say PBM goes the lowest.

It's also all about what wheel/tire combo you run. But all 3 of them will go plenty low enough. I have PBMs and I've never had to remove collars.

i think pbm's are the lowest of the low, there's a pic somewhere on zilvia of the dude who took collars off his pbm's and flipped the brackets, and he had chuki s13 skirts touching the floor

My fortunes can go too low, and we all know how low PBM's go. I think these two are the lowest options.

Cause I have big tires up front and big aero that I feel like keeping ON the car. As for the rear, I'm waiting for an alignment to lower the rear more. Plus it's a daily driver.

Shut up. Fortune's don't go low unless you flip the bracket then that notched top bracket hole becomes useless. Gay.

Stance plus $40 shorter spring they sell/regular PBM go lowest. What other coilover have you seen can make the front fender touch the lip of a 17x9 +15 with a 215/40?

I actually took preload out so it's JUST touching the top and bottom of my spring. Spring still "spins" by hand. No collars.



I preloaded it a little bit more one time and literally put the car on the ground. Sway bar was resting on the floor and the wheel well was sitting on the tire. Fender tucking the lip of the rim. Undriveable.

Index finger fitment in the front and slammed in the rear. Clears hella driveways. Then again I'm running Navan all around my S14. So no worries on scrape-page.
