Default Tein

How's Tein in terms of quality? How would their springs compare to say Eibach or H&R?

Thanks,
Craig

I don't have them on my car, but I've heard nothing but good reviews about them, and their price is pretty good too.

I had Eibach Pros in the past. I liked them, not too stiff (pretty close to stock) and drops the car about 1.2-1.3 inches.
Never used Teins before but I heard they are pretty good. Made in Japan. The RX-8 guys love it.

PS: watch out for "fake" Tein springs going around on ebay.

imo i like the coilover factor... just because you can adjust the ride height to your pleasing whenever you want... but all i've heard were good things from tein... nothing but good...

^^ I want to upgrade to coilovers next year. Just like burnhard88 said, the adjustability for ride height and damper force is a bonus with coilovers.
