The drop looks perfect for a daily driver! I went back and forth on cutting the springs on my car. Of course everyone says not to do it, and long term it may not be ideal. I was most worried about the springs not sitting right on the perches and then having to fabricate something to make them fit. Fabricating and I do not make a good match. I finally found some used teins for an amazing price so I got them instead.

Yeah I made sure it sat right at the bottom so it doesn't move or anything. But been riding on it for quite sometime now. No issues. I guess as long as you do it right and make sure everything is even then you have no worries.

I'm on cut springs. To me, I really don't believe in spending money on something that doesn't make me money. All the mods I've done are all free. I rather spend my money on something will make me money.

You can't go wrong with vossen man. I love them. I'm a fan. From what I've heard, you won't be disappointed.

Thanks guys for the compliments

Could you help me with some questions?

Which model Genesis are these from? Coupe, sedan, year?
Do they fit with zero mods? Is the hub size the same?
Do they rub at all? At full suspension compression? (in other words, do they tuck?)

It fits fine, only difference is the hub size, which can be adapted with a centric ring, or with careful lug nut tighening. To do it without a hub centric ring you put all the lug nuts on loosely, and slowly tighten them in the appropriate star shape while trying to move the wheel. Once it stops shifting, it should be centered based on the progressive tighening on the studs. It is a pain to do it that way, so just buy some $10 hub centric rings on Amazon, lol.
