    the ss kit is awesome, best suspension set up ive had yet. Before i had s.tech. the ss kit on the lowest height setting is about 1-1.25 inches lower than s.tech, so about a 3-3.25 inch drop. Everything is flush, fender and tire.....Im hoping the springs settle some so that the car will go lower.

    Offset on the rims are 46mm.

    i actually dont carry anyone in the car with me....once in a while i do, but only like 2 people plus me, so three.....still no rubbing. However, when i make sharp turns it rubs on the inner fender wells, so yes it does rub..

    my rims are Crimson K-6's/18x8/Nitto Neo Gen 215/40R18

    wagon kit is made for the corolla wagon, the ones available i believe in australia, europe and japan, none here in US. I recommend getting the SS....if you want to save $400 though, wait till the basic kit from tein comes out....same as the ss just no 16 way adjustablity.

    we have choke pot holes in hawaii cuz our city can give a less of a shit about taking care of our roads. now i notice i have been swerving more to avoid them. hehe.......

    neonaid, the next thing ill prolly get for my car is either new rims, possibly SSR COurage, or upgrade the rest of my suspension, hotchkis sways, trd front strut brace and the trd rear member brace that i believe must be special ordered from japan.

    yes, but some of the numbers might be slightly different, like spring rate and max/min drop

    Wagon is the type of coilover, not for what model car.
    The Wagon is about $800 but it's not listed on the tein site anymore. It's possible they stopped making them for our car.
