PA Springs (like NEW) Tanabe GF210s

Category: Steering & Suspension
Price: $125
Private or Vendor Listing: Private Listing
Part Fits (you may select multiples): Series I
Location (US State/Canada/Int): PA
Item Condition: Used

I have for sale a set of Tanabe GF210s, $125.00 (OBO), their like brand new only had them on the car for 2 days, they will be on for a week when I can get them switched out for the Racing Beat springs this weekend. I didn't scuff them up much when installing just a few scuffs from the coil spring compressor. My wheels don't rub however I scrape my fascia allot around my home town here in PA. We have more pot holes than road and lots of really rough gradient changes. I really like the way they look and how the car rides on the koni yellows. I was on a tight time table to get the springs ordered last week to pass inspection and didn't have much of a choice, The Tanabes are what I could order and have in my hands in less than a week. So my loss is your gain.

This is what my car looks like with them on the car, handles like its on rails in combo with the Koni's, 30% improvement in handling. If you don't live in pot hole city or don't minde some scrapping the Tanabe's are great.

Are those TSW nurbürgring wheels? if i get paid by wednesday, i may ****** them up.

Does it lower the car or is it the same as stock? Will they work with stock shock absorbers? Whats the ride quality? Stiff, or soft?

Yes those are the TSW nurbürgring wheels in bronze. I love the way they look!

As for the springs, yes they will fit on the car with the stock shocks. The springs will lower your car from stock ride height about 1.4" Front and 1.2"Rear; the Tanabe GF210's are about the lowest spring you can get and still have the car able to drive normally without other issues coming up. What you are seeing in the pic is another half an inch lower than you will achieve using stock shocks because I have the Koni Yellows installed on my car. They are low pressure gas shocks and don't help lift the car like the high pressure stock Tokico's. As for ride quality, I would have a hard time comparing for you being I have them paired with Koni yellows, which are very stiff. With stock shocks you will still gain some handling and stiffen up the ride slightly but nothing extreme.

Hope that helps, if your still interested I will most likely be able to ship next Monday, Ill need the weekend to switch over to my Racing beat springs that are on their way.

Thanks!

Love the TSW, two sides on my car have the same wheel except in gunmetal.

Alright, I did a little more research. This is something I am interested in. I will send you my phone # via PM. We can talk more through SMS if that's okay. I am hardly on this site that's why,
