the more and more i think about it.. the more and more the tein s tech spring rates bother me.. i want a near stock/stock ride, but i want it to handle better (oximoron, i know) and i dont want to wait for the ep3 specific s techs to come out... progress is about the same price range,and only has slightly stiffer spring rates then stocK/ what is your oppinions on this, and would i be better off with tein s tech (for em2) or progress.. thanks..

there arent any springs that will be same as stock springs.
Progress: 280 front and 500 rear Drop: 1.8" front and 1.5" rear
Tein S Tec: 157 front 291 rear Drop 1.5" front 1.4" rear

tein s tech springs are softer than stock springs while progress springs are stiff. if you are looking for performance. then dont get tein s tech. i went with tein s tech since my car is daily drive and wanted nice soft ride. so its your choice. and progress springs will drop more than tein s tech springs so.
