Default Anyone with Tein on their EK?

Is anyone here running a complete Tein suspension on their EK? If so, what system and how do you like it?

HA's for me, but i do not have the top plates, just basic tein ha's

what do you all run your car on usually? I actually find it handles all around better if i leave it on 12 front and 8-12 rear
AT THE MINIMUM!

Is that a common problem with Tein's? Also, is there a big difference between the HA system and the SS (besides the use of the ITR LCA's)?

It depends mainly on where you live. If you have snowy winters with a lot of salt on the roads and a lot of rain, you can pretty much expect any Sus rust up weather it be Apex N1's ,Tein's, etc. Gotta California. I believe the SS is a street version which= ***** spring rates.

I just bought another set of ha`s today. I don`t believe they are discontinued. I don`t like to deal in custom rates, makes the transaction too complicated. I don`t want to be bringing stuff back becuase somebody was given the wrong rates. That`s no fun for either of us
