30827, Tien Springs and Setups!
Posted by Shadow2877, Oct-22-07 09:57 AM
Hey everyone,

I picked up some Tein, -0.9 drop springs recently and I am curious what everyones outlook is on them. Should I sell the set and buy me a differnt brand or keep them, what kinds of suspension setups is everyone else using?

Thanks,
-Cody

I'm running the Tein S-Tech springs (1.3" drop roughly after settled) on Tokico Hp's (blues) and the ride quality has been great for me.

I'd recommend them if you're not looking for too drastic of a drop. Also Eibach prokits are a favorite among members here as well.

Yea, I got the H-Tech for the reason of not dropping it to low. I plan on moving in the upcomming year or two over to Florida, but the roads here in Texas are way to jacked up to have a 2" off the ground car. Im not trying to dought the quality of Tein Springs but if there is a better setup out there I would rather take care of it now then later.

you think texas roads are jacked? come drive in colorado. the only thing in texas that messes with me on the roads are those dumb little reflectors instead of nice painted lines. those things wouldn't last one snow up here

Lol, I know what ya mean. They layed down a bunch of them over here on I-20 (Dallas/Fortworth) while they do a bunch of construction work and no one notices them in the day time until them start hitting them. Then they want to start narrowing in, in order to miss the construction up ahead.

I know where I-20 is, my mom lives north in sherman. the reason I said tose dumb reflectors wouldn't last one snow is that the plows would scrape them right off the road :7

Tiens on AGX's, a great combination. Adjust from track to road in a couple of minutes. Great ride. Can still get the "normal" jack under the front of the car.

I see you wrote in just Tien springs. I hope you are planning on a strut/shock replacement as well. You did say set-up.....

Here is my car on tein s-tech's and gr2 struts. I love the ride quality, but I almost wish the car was a little lower.
