Classics on tein-s tech springs
Pics please people
iv seen scooby23's
got whiteline flatouts and the front sits fine, but the rear does sit a tad high and unequal
wondering is tein-s techs are worth a purchase?

You should be fine with 18's if you get the right offset and use a 215/35/18 tyre

just out of interest when you say it scrubs a lot with the 16" is this all the time or just when carrying a load,

Looks like you've already caught it to, as it's not flush over the bottom of the bumper?
