Default Tenzo Springs

I will be lowering my 97' EX soon and was wondering if anyone had any experience with the Tenzo lowering springs? How do they ride? Perform? Thanks

They should be fine, not the best quality or anything like that....I would have picked a more "reputable" brand for suspension pieces myself, but none the less if you have good struts you'll be in good shape.

all bullshitting aside, we once installed some tenzo lowering springs on a friends 98 civic EX, the drop ended up being perfect and the ride was actually alot better than some of the other name brand springs we had ridden on. i also had some arospeed springs on my 91 CRX si with kyb shocks(non-adjustable) and the ride and handling was unbelievable. just my $.02

i say to tenzo, one of the first few still existing companies that started with the import scene. talk about old school '95. remember your first tenzo intake. THE ****! may not be the best NAME brand but their accessories are very affordable and look good for what you pay.

I was very happy with the Tenzo springs that were on my '91 CRX.

I need the adjustable coilovers since I live in the country, so are the coilovers by Tenzo and Arospeed going to be comparable to their springs?

the arospeed coilovers are TRASH . dont even consider them an option no matter what your budget is. Tenzo coilovers not sure...maybe someone else might have some input on them. tried a search yet?
