Question about Tein S-techs

Is it me or does the Tein S-techs lower the back of the car more than the front? I was looking at my car earlier and it looks stupid...anyone else having this problem?

Not sure if it is more or not, but the S-Techs are an aggressive drop. I haven't seen a case where it makes it looks bad. Post some pics so we can see what you are experiencing.

How's the ride feeling mushy while rebounding and real stiff? I think it looks good

That rear does look aweful low but I do not think it looks stupid. The fronts on these cars are hard to get "level" with the rear without coilovers.

All of the lowering springs will drop the rear lower than the front.

Yep! I'm on htechs and my rear is lower than the front.

Thats why I was curious because someone posted some pics of their htech after settled and their front was lowered than their rear. Perhaps they installed the springs backwards?

Thanks for posing that pic. The back looks too much for my taste and it looks lower than other photos I've seen here. Someone over at G35NYC said this. Of course they were talking about G35C but what do you guys think? If S Tech lowers G35 by 1.2" and 2" on G37 is this quote true?

"G35 S-Techs ride like **** too STIFF and I scrape my front lip everywhere, Too low in the front not low enough in the rear!"

I'm not sure if that's the exact numbers, but the G37 is heavier than the G35.
