TEIN-S Tech Installed!!! NO TONKA TRUCK HERE

Hey G's! Just wanted to share some iphone pics of my newly installed TEIN springs. Was a little worried about the install because im running 20's (GT-C) and that feared/dreaded rear bumper bracket.

Got them installed at SPEED INJECTED (hallandale, fl) great price!, great service! and they took care of that bracket for me simple bend and the wheels tucked in perfectly.

Thanks hope you enjoy praise and criticism welcome

how many miles have you had them for? this only my second modded car...ive only known springs. years ago i had a spec v on eibachs. im happy with the ride so far so hoping it sticks. got a great deal on these so fit the function and the wallet. may be later (if necessary?) will upgrade to coils.
thanks

Tires are meaty for the look you are going for. Looks nice though.
