Finally!! The Tein S. tech review....
EDIT! after 3 months my rear passenger side still sits higher!
I dont know if its my shocks or my springs.....
What up y0!
THink outside the box
So i finally switched out my og Skunkworks yes thats right i said skunkworks not Skunk2 and let me say this to all the skunk2 haters after 2 1/2 years of being dumped on crashed on and raced on they are still good and no saging or breaking at all
But i just wanted something not so bumpy and actually the Wifey didnt want something so bouncy so i decided to try out the tiens.
The drop goes from 1.9" in the front and 1.7" in the back and the ride is superb. Well at least a real def improvement over my og springs. They are paired up with my kyb agx's and so far they feel good and look good as well. At first i was a bit worried that i would be to high but theyve settled in quite nicely
Here are the after pics and comments questions welcomed.
My new tool has a new happy home
Shes blinging y0!

As far as my brakes go they are still stock just w/crossed drilled rotors which will soon change as soon as i get my bonus for my fastbrakes kit
and honestly i dont know what the spring rates come with the springs all i know is that you can order soft or medium spring rates...

Yeah man you must of seen my other post on it but yeah its a good deal i suggest that anybody that doesnt want to spend the $$$ on air tools this is a good cheap buy. only 59.99 for it and 7 bux more for a full yr warranty!

got anymore pics of you taking your old springs out? i just got some sportlines and im going to be putting them within the next week or 2 and i just wanted to see some visuals. By the way nice purchase and that is one clean sedan.
i never even knew tein made proggessive springs....i thought it was just coilovers...do they make shocks too? a nice set of s-tech with a pair of tein shocks...then you would really be blingin.....
