Junk2, yes, Tein I haven't had a problem with, and I've had both. I have the Tein's on my car now and have had absolutely no problems with them as of yet (knocks on wood).

BC &gt; Tien. However, Skunk2 makes a good product, don't let people scare you away. In the end what your purpose for your car dictates what you should look for.

I'd go BC for sure, But you are right, Skunk2 isnt that bad, I've had no trouble with the products ive had from them. And i'll probly be buying from them again, Just some people have bad luck I guess

Can you actually say BC &gt; Tien? Have you actually tried both or are you giving a biased opinion? I have Tien SS on mine and i am perfectly fine with them. No problems what so ever. I can't say anything about BC because i've never used them.
