Have it on my hatch with illumina. Awesome ride. It would be nice if it was a bit lower.

i have them on stockers, its been about 8 months now. rides similar to stock a bit stiffer. my only complain is that my rear is slightly lower than the front, slightly...but when i sit in it, it evens out nice. maybe that will change once i throw some new shocks on there.

I've got them coupled with KYB AGX's on my 93 Si and they ride incredibly well, handle great and I have no complaints. The ***-end could be lower, but I didn't buy my springs for aesthetic purposes, so I don't care.

I have tein s tech's on my '92 si with its oem shocks.

The ride is pretty close to stock just slightly firmer. I did alot of research before I bought and the best deals could be found on ebay and from What Ive found the teins have the lowest springrates.

When I first installed them the ride height was uneven and made me very unhappy so I took the car for a romp and it was still uneven.
After a quick check I found that the springs were not properly seated in there perches and nomatter how hard I tried to twist them I couldint budge them with the shock bolted to the upper pillow mount.
What I ended up having to do was assebble the shock on the car with the pillow hat bolted to the car.
After that everything was perfect and it still is. Its been about 2 months now and about 2000 miles.

I totally looked into eibach but they dont drop your car as much and they cost more. I couldint find springrates.

You cant go wrong with them you just have to wait and look around alot more to find a good deal and I didnt want to when I could get the teins for $150 off of ebay.
