Tein 13+ Subaru BRZ Street Basis Z Coilovers

If you're looking to give your 2013-2020 Subaru BRZ, 2013-2016 Scion FR-S, or 2017-2020 Toyota 86 a more aggressive stance and sharper handling, these Tein Street Basis Z coilovers are a solid option. They're designed to replace your factory struts and springs, allowing you to adjust your vehicle's ride height. You can expect to lower your car anywhere from 1 to 2 inches, which not only changes the look but also helps reduce body roll during cornering.

Tein has built these coilovers with their experience in suspension tuning. The Street Basis Z line uses a twin-tube internal structure, which is a well-known design for providing consistent damping performance. They come pre-set with a specific damping force that's tuned for a balance between sporty feel and everyday comfort, so you don't have to worry about making complex adjustments right away. The spring rates are also matched to this damping to work well together. They also feature a full-length adjustment system, meaning you can change the ride height without affecting the spring preload, which is important for maintaining ride quality and suspension travel.

When installing these, you'll be replacing your entire strut assembly. It's a good idea to have a torque wrench handy to ensure everything is tightened to spec, and it's often recommended to get a wheel alignment done after installation to make sure your tires are tracking straight. These coilovers are a great way to get a noticeable improvement in your car's appearance and driving dynamics.
