I just got my Teins coilovers

I just got my Tein basic Coil overs and installed I love it and they handle very well.. tested at Mt. Hamilton. Next Mod Wheels any suggestion's?

I just want to thank D&A Autosport in Santa Clara for the great job you guy should give them call 408-588-1936 or 408 550-5855 they are cheaper then most shops!

How was the ride affected. I know it is stiffer, but I am trying to get a good idea of how much.

It's either the Basic CO or S Tech springs for me.

I would checkout D&A Autosport Pricing cause I have called around and they were the cheapest. here's the Number 408-588-1936 They also carry the pss9.

Its a little stiffer then my stock sport suspension but not much and i daily drive the car and my wife cant even tell the difference...... but handles like champ ... I mean i took it on a canyon run and it's almost as good as my EVO9, and my EVO 9 Has Full Race coil overs and I have it on a track setup.

I would pick up the tein basic CO and give D&A a call 408-588-1936 for it they were the cheapest and I called Around..
