Tein S-Tech's, Anyone......

Anyone scrape with their Tein S-Techs with 4 people in the car? Bottom out? Scraping while turning the wheels. The questions is in regarding to 4 people in the car, not by yourself or with passenger.

I just did a 60 mile round trip with 3 adults in the car (not 4, but yeah) the other night without a single issue, and that's with the tires sitting flush with the fenders. I would have really heard that if the car had any troubles. lol

I hope that you are a dad, and not something else.

What does that plant have to do with kids?

And also to stay on topic, the only thing I've scraped so far with S-Techs in are those front flap things under the bumper, the plastic thingies, I don't know what to call them. Because, every time I hear a scrape, I go to the front of my lip, and feel underneath it, still no scrapes. So, the only thing lower than that are those flappy plastic thingies, whatever they're called.
