Anyone with Tein flex co pass recon?

Anyone has tein flex coilovers that passed recon bounce test?
I set my fronts to 16 clicks counter clockwise and they still don't move. The rear seems like it could pass though...

Recon? Whats recon? I no care about recon lol.. But for real I have seen a recon check its not a serious as people make it to be. In all serious I don't care about it. I will not get it while I'm here.

When I went through recon, they had me do the bounce test myself. So I always tell people who are worried about the bounce test to bring some big and/or strong person to do the bounce test for you. All you need to show is that it travels down 1 inch and back up 1 inch.

Or you could hit the gym and prep for your recon day lol.

I mean I can bounce the back fine. But the front just won't move. Even my friends couldn't move it. Maybe the dampener is broken or needs oil?!
I already been one time and failed and he laughed at me cause it didn't move haha

The guy laughed at me just cuz I rolled up in a subie, then shut up once I passed the bounce test haha. I wouldn't know about your case, I'm not running coils. But good luck!

yes.. recon is not as bad as it used to be, well as far as suspension goes. i have a apexi coil over with 32 way adjustment and just put it to the softest setting and was fine.
-appts can still be made but not needed.
- remember your alignment is only good for 30 days. go asap after its done.
-$15 cash only if you pass.
