Tien S-Tech Vs. Eibach Sportline
anyone dealing with these 2 springs?
which would give a better drop and preformance? my frined has the sportline on his si and its awsome no gap at all i want springs that will lower a stock integra with no gap between the wheel and fender but the fender not overlaping the wheel.
which would you go with?

Go with the Sportline, there was a few threads talking about Tein's low end suspension and how it's mostly hype. I know quite a few people pissed off with S-TECHs. Tein makes good suspension kits if you are gonna buy RAs or REs, but those are like 1600 suspensions.
I agree Tein is really over rated and overpriced just for their entry level products which are good but not worth the cash the upper level stuff is superb but really will do no good unless u are really hardcore Auto Xer and need a hardcore suspension
I hate my Tein springs!!! They totally dumped the front end of the car. My front tires are a good inch into the fender well and the rear fender line is above the tires.
My next move is going to be some GC's with specific spring rates, then I can use any shocks I want.

The front looks higher than the rear NOT because the springs are bad but because of the way the fenders on our cars are made to give the
illusion that they are off. (In all honesty, I think Eibach make some of the best springs and compared to other springs... they don't tend to
sag as time passes).
It's a 1.7" drop all around... plain and simple. I'm sure there are many springs out there with a lower front drop to offset the illusion like
H&Rs and Neuspeed. Go ahead and check...

By the way... who drives around with a 2.5" front drop with bad camber (negative toe)?
Doh! Nevermind... my friend does. =P Damn H&R racing springs! Really you guys, they're not 2.0" drops.. they're more like 2.5"!
