Just installed Tein S. Tech springs on the 06 Lancer

just a question for anyone who can answer...i just installed some lowering springs (Tein S. Tech) i love the way my car looks...but it is riding pretty stiff....is this how it will always ride or did i just need to give the springs some time to adjust to the weight...someone let me know

It's gonna be stiff and unfortunately you will notice decreased handling performance during mid-corner bumps.

Yes, it will be more stiff, and yes you reduced handling and will blow your shocks for the sake of lowering the car.
