Tein Flex not low enough at the back
I've dropped my Z on a set of tein flex but the back doesn't go low enough. Anyone know of other spings i could use that would allow me to drop it further?
Thanks

Cut the rear rubber mount some. You can shave off 1/2" safely

Either cut the rear spring mount, or get some other coilovers like Stance.

Yea i've got coilovers and they are at the lowest setting at the back but not low enough. The front is balanced and only adjusted about 2/3s of the way down.
What i was wondering is can i get a couple of spings for the back to replace the ones that came with my kit so i can lower the car more?

i thought the rear was supposed to be higher that way when you accelerate and the rear squats, your car doesn't look like a boat in water?
