Default Decide: Tein S-techs or Eibach Sportlines for the RSX-S?

please please, i know about coilovers, and im aware that they are better. I just want a drop NOW, and springs are soo readily available.

Im asking basically which offer a lower stance?

My frined has Tein S-techs on A-spec struts and would sell me for 50 bucks.

Another Local has Eibach Sportlines.

Checking other peoples preference.

Any input would greatly appreciated. Thanks

Who says coilovers are better? For a daily driver a good spring/good shock is far superior.

Anyways, the S-Techs are better than any of the eibachs. The S-techs lower the proper amount and have a better front/rear spring ratio for an RSX.

Was curious, but the Eibachs lower more in the rear, I'm curious why is that? does anyone kno?

The teins wont be off my friends car till a month or so, So i might pick up the eibachs..


Thanks alot for the input though.

the rsx has a higher rear stock stance, but i guess its not the best as far as performance is concerned. eibachs are meant to even it out for the sake of performance, but the s techs keep a lower front and look a lot better IMO. eibachs make it look like u got fat chicks in the backseat.

Because they are inferior. I already said that. To have a good handling RSX, the rear must not be lower than the front.

If you're just after looks, then either choice really doesn't matter.
