No RAS.

Just a lot of stuff in the way.

Interesting, I had more trouble with the fronts but probably because I threaded the springs through the shock tower hole and the KW HAS springs are wound real tight near the bottom.

Nice ride height, car looks great

This looks great. What size spacers are you going for?

I just installed KIES spacers a few weeks back. 12mm/12mm and love it. I did try 12mm/10mm, but the 10mm on the rear just didn't feel right.

12 looks proper. Your car isn't lowered at all right? I ordered 12/12 from Kies as well, but I've been a bit scared of what would happen if I lowered the car as well. I was thinking of some KW HAS, but waited to pull the trigger on those for now. I'm still waiting on the car itself anyway

It usually works opposite to how you think it will... when you lower the car the wheels usually camber inwards at the top causing you to need wider spacers.

I'm on more aggressive offsets than stock and still running a 14mm spacer in the rear. Lowered on KW HAS kit.

Ok that's comforting then. Your car is like the golden standard for fitment from what I've seen when I was initially researching the T here lol

Nope. Not lowered. I was thinking of over 15mm on the front, but I decided that it may stick out too far and on a turn it may rub if I hit a bump on the road... I'm happy with 12mm/12mm setup.

I do have an extra set of 10mm (put on, drove around the block and removed as I replaced it with a 15mm set right away)...
