How are the S-Tech springs? I am considering getting them but keep getting told to get coilovers because they are better, adjustable, etc but I dont have the money and every time you adjust you have to realign. I really want the S-Tech springs but want to know how they ride, any problems installing, and if you would recommend them

I'm very happy with the ride quality, I could be wrong but I think Tein S-techs are the lowest springs you can get, 1.6 F&R. Tein rides great and they are Made in Japan.
I didn't go with a full damper sysytem on this car because I drive a lot to visit my friends and family almost every week (2hours drive), but the extra lowering ability is nice.
My brother installed these for me, the only problem he said was be careful of the axles falling out when you're changing the springs.
Here's pictures incase you need the part number, good luck!

Hey Hayden, I'm just gonna copy and paste what I said to Mrbubbles, since you guys asked the same questions lol.

Thumbs up

Once again, another example that white RULEZ on these cars, nice job, like both wheels but the 2nd set are better because IMO the black w/polished lip is played out.

Can you please PM where you got the shark fin antenna, thanks!

Thanks Evil1, yeah I started a thread in the wheels and tires section to ask about those 215's no one said anything so I wanted to try it. 215's rides fine, its just when you drive dips the car drops down and rubs but that's about it.
