Status: offline 		So i bought these drift springs TITANIUM DRIFT SPRING 14x27x1.8mm 9coils (Red/2pcs) part number #6557 from hpi the other day and installed them tonight now i bought 4 pcs so i put them all on but now my cars front sits on the ground... everything else in my car is bone stock and im really new at this so do i need something else new? and also i see there are tires made just for drifting i also see some of you use ABS piping which is best? and do i use rubber cement to keep them on?
