17x8 2 20mm spacers idk effective offset lots of neg camber. 17x9 rear +12 0 camber.

The rear won't go any lower. Fortuner Auto Coilovers 12k 10k. The rear has no collars and the mount is threaded up as far as possible. Can I get the shorter 10k Swift springs without risking blowing the dampener since that would have the same effect as cutting springs?

How am i fucking up the dampener already when the springs and seats are pre loaded to fortune specifications just as they came out of the box? Only thing I did was remove the locking collars and thread the bottom mount up as far as possible. So the only way I could go lower is with shorter shock bodies or if i droop with swift 10k's which are shorter.

most dampners work with collars in. When you remove them, it's like having a fat kid sit in your trunk. Not saying it wont' help, there is just that much less room for the dampner to move around. Same with putting shorter spring, there is now less room in the compressed housing= more pressure per square inch. Tends to blow the seals faster.


Just like the kid above with tokiko blues....they are designed at x ride height, you remove some of that, you put extra stress on the dampner.
