The tanabe front matches the stock rear. U can do that. And sell the tanabe rears to someone with eibaachs bc it matches them better. If u go tanabe front n stock rear no camber kit needed at all

Thanks, what height should I aim for to eliminate the need for a rear camber kit ?

If you spend a little extra, you can get the Tein Flex Z and you get dampening along with the ability to get them re-built easier. I had them for a few months, great coilovers for the price.

Agreed!
If you are going to go with the Tein - Spend the extra for the Flex Z

Tien coilovers are best budget coilovers. They ride very good and smooth. Only downside is that the rear does not get low enough.

That's easier than having to send them back in..Even at a price premium. I'd rather have my car back on the road sooner.
