    Default Tein SS not enough drop....

    I have these coilovers on my hatch, got them at the lowest setting and still doesn't seem low enough, what quality coilovers are known to give that super low drop?

    The Tein SS should only have 2 lock rings. Just remove the lowest one and you will get another 1/4 inch. If thats not enough, you'll need a diferent setup. I believe the Teins in the picture above are Tein Flex or higher which will come with 3 lock rings.
