I've heard both good and bad things about Tein..........I'm thinking about get springs in a few weeks and wanted to know does anyone have any opinions or suggestions on them. Also I heard that these springs were designed to work with stock struts. So please feel free to throw out your opinions. Thanks!!


I'm looking to drop about 1.8 (front and rear).

 

yes they are good springs. and will work with stock shocks/struts also.

 

for that drop, look at some Tein S-Techs. Thats what i got and i'm installing mine shortly, i'll let everyone know.

 

Yeah i have tein s tech springs and tockiko illumina shocks and they seem to be holding up pretty damn well in my opinion, i wouldnt settle for any no name ebay springs because you just never know. My friend has a set of no namers and over a few months he noticed more and more rubbing in his wheel wells( saggy springs lol) if you want to get an idea of the stance check out my gallery.

 

Got S-techs and Tokico HP's love the combination. What year and model are you getting them for?

 

A set of Tein S-Tech will run you about $160 and it’sabout a 1.8 drop but they work with your stock shocks,aftermarket is always better though.Here are8 links with pictures and information of themfrom people that have already installed them on here, myself, mynmisoli, 97_nw, x2100, 05 civic,Raul98, BigT, and addiction2bass.

ya i like my stechs and HP struts....
nice drop, nice ride.... great little combo in my opinion..

i put 3 washers on my rear and still havent taken it in for a alignment yet.LOL im to lazy... BUT ill check tomorow and try to setup a apointment for monday to get it worked out and HOPEFULLY they can get everything like it should!... and if not ill see if they can just take out a washer if 3 is to many in the rear.....

just outta curiousity....... how long should a typical alignment run time wise?
id like to stay and keep an eye on my ride just to ensure no ones messen with anything or if thiers a issue i can be thier!
