Thumbs up New pics after Tein S-Tech springs....







Install was really easy and the car rides just like it did stock maybe a little softer but not much different. More mods to come....

I wanted to get the same springs do they improve handeling and all. I have heard alot of people on the forums say that some of the springs make handling worse and I have heard them say the green ones are bad?? who makes the green ones??

None, I haven't bottomed out yet and I drive my car hard thru turns. As far as handling, it handles like it did stock but I noticed a little more oversteer(Good thing).

They're probably talkin about Tein's. That's what I have and they are green. I have no complaints yet, but if I ever have any serious problems, then I'll just buy coilovers.

No thanks. Kinda the reason I got the car, plus the fact that it weighed less than the others.

Congratulations at buying one of the crappiest springs ever. Watch them sag after a while and blow your stock struts. You now do not have enough suspension travel, and the car will actually handle worse than stock.

All for the sake of looks right? Ugh...

Ive had my S techs on my car for 20,000 miles and havent had one problem yet, and I drive on some seriously messed up roads everyday to get to work..

I think the people that have had problems probably never installed a suspension in their life
