I went the cheaper route and started with the Tein S Tech springs, paired with factory shocks/struts. Once the factory shocks/struts go, my plan is to replace with Bilstein B8's.
I'm not a mechanic by any stretch of the imagination, but my understanding is the lower level Tein coil overs can't be rebuilt like many higher end coil overs can be. Additionally, with our car's rear suspension design, it's not really a coil over, it's still a spring/shock combo. Lastly, I've heard the opinion of several more knowledgeable folks than I, that claimed a proper spring/shock pairing can provide one of the best street setups you can have, so long as you don't need all the adjustments you get with coil overs for track days. That's just my 2 cents, which is probably really only worth about 1.5, so take it for what it's worth |
