SteveW Posted August 29, 2010 Share Posted August 29, 2010 Well I put some Tein S-Tech springs on the other week so here are some before and after pics for those who can't decide between Tein and Eibach. I like them stiffened the ride up nicely but not too excessive, it is still quite compliant on the bumpy UK roads but makes the handling way more precise. I will be writing a guide on how to do the change over. Its pretty easy but the damper rod top nuts can be a ball ache! Before After Before After Before After Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SteveW Posted August 29, 2010 Author Share Posted August 29, 2010 Thanks fellas, thats what it claims drop wise Chris. Its more than that after a weeks driving as they bed in. It definitely looks better and handles better Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RisingPower Posted August 29, 2010 Share Posted August 29, 2010 I'm really liking that Any ideas how much lower it is in the middle? Just I'm wondering about lowering and don't have much clearance currently over a hill and these look to be quite a sensible drop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MWTech Posted September 1, 2010 Share Posted September 1, 2010 the tein springs are certainly a very sensible drop Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jak Posted September 2, 2010 Share Posted September 2, 2010 Good job - I have recently (Saturday just gone) Fitted Tein S-Tecs and am very happy with the results... I didnt think the drop would be noticable but it definatly is - especially on the back i think. Before: After: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
friddela Posted September 9, 2010 Share Posted September 9, 2010 Anyone got pictures with these fitted with 19" wheels? Fitted my new wheels today and the back looks like a 4x4 so really need to get something sorted and not sure if these will drop it enough. Cheers .

What offsets are your wheels +13 all round (+28 with 15mm Spacers). I'm exaggerating how they look, probably isn't too bad but a lot more noticeable than before. Think I'm going for some BC Coilover's as there pretty well priced. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
