FS: TEIN Basic Coilovers ~ $550 shipped! ~ pics

Up for sale are my TEIN Basic Coilovers. They come with one extra strut mount (one strut comes assembled), as you can see in the picture. You also get the adjustment wrenches. These have about 5k miles on them. Just some cosmetic wear from being installed underneath a car Otherwise they are in perfect condition. I liked them a lot, but really need the money for other projects. $550 shipped in the continental U.S. I don't mind shipping to Canada as well if you pay the extra cost. If you live in SoCal, I don't mind driving down to meet you in LA. Here are two pictures. First one is the coilovers off the car. The second is when they were installed on the car. The rear was all the way down, the front could go down a lot more.

Thats why they are called adjustable...The fronts, as I stated, had a lot more room to go down. You could technically use just the springs without the perch in the rear, if you wanted to slam the car.

Unfortunately, I have no idea. You might ask in the w209 forum and see if its possible.

Everyone...


The price is $550 shipped firm. This is a great price, and I really cant believe I am getting offers for less, and some a lot less. Please don't waste my time with an offer of less money.

They will...You can use washers to make the smaller endlinks work. Or, as many people do, take the opportunity to upgrade to the AMG endlinks

I would just like to say thanks to code3smith. The whole experience was great and the coilovers arrived when he said it would, they also arrived with everything he said was included.

Very happy with the whole transaction.

How is the ride on the Tein Basic Coilovers that you just purchased? Does it ride rougher now?

The ride is alot better.

It isn't any rougher than before, just stiffer/responsive than the H&R spring and shocks setup I had before.
