Thread: tien springs?

    Question tien springs?

    i'm looking to lower my car a bit just for appearance sake, and for street driving/performance. I've looked around and think i'm going to go with Tien springs with 1.5 drop.. was wondering if anyone else has this setup and if the ride is still good.. not looking for serious stiffness and definately not a bumpy ride... any insight or recomendations on other springs also?

    hey i got the tein lowering springs.. but mine is a 1.8 inch drop.. it's not that low... i think it's looks a hundred times better and it's decent for everyday driving... also the ride feels almost the exact same as the stock springs.. still the same ol smooth drive.. i give the teins a thumbs up... can't go wrong with teins.. you should give em a try...

    aych bomb, just to let u know, Tein don't have springs for our car yet .. the one ultramania has aren't for our cars, if u care at all. the spring rates aren't nearly as high as they should be for our cars.. hence after a while with them, ur shocks WILL blow sooner than other springs. word for thought. teins for our cars should be out fairly soon, but there are other springs that do a real good drop for cheap.

    eibach sportlines
    neuspeed race
    sprint

    well... civic hatch boi.. maybe he's right.. but i got these springs. and they work great without any problems or anythig like that. .the people tha ti ahve bought it from is a very respected performance shop on the west coast... they fit my car.. they work.. the drop is great and also the ride is just as smooth... they mite as well be for our ride... but yea.. civic hatch maybe right.. i dunno... but i just wanted something that other people don't have.. so i went with the teins.. and tein suspension is A+ in my book... i'm just going ot use these springs till i get coilovers from them... oh by the way.. if you're wondering.. i got it for about 179.00 under 200 bucks...
