Default Questions for Tein Basic

Guys,

Where is the best place to get them? Did some search, but they vary, so if anybody can suggest a good place to buy them at a good deal.


Also, do I need to run any camber kit? Looking to lower less than 1 inch. How was the alignment without the camber kit?


I am on hotchkiss springs right now, but looking to upgrade. No camber kits so far and alignment is perfect.

Thanks,
Tony

I bought mine from Evolution, a forum sponsor. For me, the lowest setting is near perfect, and I'm running 285's in the rear and never rub too.

No camber kit, yet.

B-unit has a camber kit with his teins I believe. It's always a good idea if you're lowering 1" IMO

The constant bounce goes away. Nice and firm over bumps yet feels like stock, just doesn't bounce like stock. I installed mine saturday and glad I got the basics.
