For a daily driver with a moderate drop.
S techs are fine.
I had them on my car and wasnt dissapointed.

they should last a while...i mean your not putting cheap coilover sleeves over stock shocks and them almost compressed fully all the time....tein S springs on stock shocks should be good..not too ruff of a ride either

Cant go wrong with any of those.

The most comfy IMO is the Eibach Sports....and then if you really have the dough, mate them with some Tokico Illuminas and youll be ridin' fresh
