tein s techs
 

Im looking to lower my car and the best thing for me, i think, is the tein s techs. Im looking for a nice ride mainly for looks cuz i dont plan on doing any racing or anything. Would the teins be my best bet?

Is that a good, quality deal?

RE: tein s techs
 

yea i have heard good things about them. and yes thats a pretty good deal. i dont know if you are interested but i have a BRAND new set of h&r sport springs that im selling for $150.

RE: tein s techs
 

where ya located? What are those springs mainly used for, racing?

RE: tein s techs
 

i forgot to ask before, will the s techs i have the link to up top work for my 98 DX. I wasnt sure what the cars specified were cuz i didnt know what em1/ ej6/ 7/ 8 were.

RE: tein s techs
 

hey man i pmd you. check---

RE: tein s techs
 

BE CAREFUL WHEN BUYING TEIN SPRINGS FROM EBAY. You have to be cautious on ebay b/c people are selling FAKE ones that look identical. It has something to do with the shade of yellow used in the font of the box.I think there's a write up somewhere on this site about them. Just letting you know...

They look fake to me but if someone could let me know that be great.

RE: tein s techs
 

They look like the fake one's to me but i'm no expert. Ask the seller for more pix to confirm the other su****ions and check their feedback.

RE: tein s techs
 

yes i think they are fake too. when i first looked that them i thought that price was a little cheaper than i had been seeing. and i had never seen that box. i pm'd u again.

RE: tein s techs
 

i hated my stechs............the front sat higher than my rear for some odd reason

RE: tein s techs
 

Was the lower the same height all around? A lot of there spring sets have the front higher, I searched until I found 1.6 inch drop ALL the way around

RE: tein s techs
 

thats the reason i got my h&r's. 1.75 front, 1.5 rear. well it doesnt matter now anyways im not going to use them and they have just been sitting in my room every since. im about to order me some koni yellow/ground controls.

RE: tein s techs
 

Yup, my tokicos are 1.4 up front and 1.25 in back...can't wait to get them on...going to be at least till thursday...i work mon and tuesday after school and wednesday is valentine's day

RE: tein s techs
 

Ew, back end being lower than the front ftl. The rear on si's is a little higher on the back, so if I lower it 1.6 all the way around the back SHOULD be a little higher than the front.

RE: tein s techs
 

i have s-techs...i like them....nice drop height...and decent for comfort...obviously it's not going to be as smooth as stock, but not to the point where people always complain the ride is so crappy.
