2 questions:

Does anyone have pics of these two? I want to compare the ride height.

How's the ride of either one of these as compared to stock? I'm probably going to get a set before I get $$$ for the coils.

 

If you have either one, can you post pics and impressions? Thanks.

 

+1 any pics i want to see also

 

I have the S-Techs on my G35 and they suck compared to the Tanabe GF210s I just put on my girlfriend's 350Z. The Tanabes have a much more even drop and a much better ride.

 

+2 also in for pix + impressions

 

i think it looks really good though....you wouldnt recommend the stech? whats the price difference?

 

They aren't bad springs, just not as good as the Tanabes. I think the Tanabes may be a tad cheaper too, but I don't really remember what I paid for the Tiens.

 

I want to see these pics too! can someone repost?

 

If ur gonna get tein springs get the S tech. Getting the H tech isnt even worth it seeing as how they barely have any drop. I have the S tech springs and I think they have a nice drop to them.

 

between the 2 springs, the S. Tech's definitely FTW!!!

 

I have the S.Techs on my 06. I liked them at first but after they settled the front ended up being a little too low and rubbed when turning and going over a bump at a certain angle.. not often just enough to aggravate me.

 

sending paypal to purchase the s techs tomorrow. I found a Z pic with them and you're right, they do have a nice drop.

 

I'll be running them with 19" rims. -specs in my sig. do you think I'll rub??

 

whats your definition of good? tanabe's are progressive while with peak springrates near stock, which means performance suffers for a better ride quality. Tein H-techs on the other hand are linear and stiffer than stock, while S-techs are progressive in the front, and also stiffer than stock. So other than the amount of drop they provide, what makes them better?
