Anyone know how I can buy just a set of Front TEIN HAs for an EG? My front TEIN HAs were stolen, but I still have the rears...anyone know of a way to get just fronts? By the way, on the TEINs! They are excellent!

I don't know about others, but i put mine at 14 in the front and 12 in the rear, it seemed to respond pretty good in the turns and wasn't too stiff/bumpy for comfortable daily driving

ss don`t have the helper springs, rates aren`t quite as agressive, and are about $100 cheaper. They are 16 way adjustable like the HA. I think they are fine for a daily driver and occasional lapping events or autocross.

Im confused. Are you talking about the pic at the top of the page? Those are SS coilovers. Tein does make springs but I am not familar with them. Koni makes great shocks and they are compatible with lowered cars.

I have the tein SS on my 96 civic and I like them a lot,they are really good for street use and occasional track days.I have no idea what my shocks are set at anymore,i think they are at like 8 front and 12-13 rear,something like that. Either way u set them up the ride isn't too harsh. Tein
