Like the title says i just installed my springs today and i'd like to recap it for you all!

The install was completely straight forward and rather simple!!! I do recommend that a friend or two helps you out with some of the install... i had two friends help me. All it took us was 3 1/2 hours and we had no experience what so ever. Somebody said it best in another thread, "A monkey could do it."

Anyways... i can't even notice a change in camber and my alignment seems to be normal. I was wondering if the camber can change during the settling period and if i really should get the alignment. I was planning on aligning it in about a week...

Oh yeah... i cleared the headlights this week too. Kinda a bitch to put the bumper back on! I'll have pics of my car soon... once i get the oem tails in the mail and clean the car.

I have teins too but in my 02 hatch..

the springs may take a couplemof days to settle.. that is they are brand new. if you bought them old, then your probaly good to go. If I was you i'd get an alignment, its better to be safe than sorry you know?

and do you have any pics?

Congrats. I'm really looking into getting these... possibly soon. I have stock rims, though; do you?

sorry about the late reply... no i have Enkei 17's wrapped in nitto neo gens 215/45/17. The perfect size tire and spring combination to eliminate all rear gap and most of the front gap!

I have the same tire size and am looking to lower also. There's a GB which SLP is doing with tokico shocks along with the Tein springs with an Ingalls camber kit all in one..
How is the ride with the Tein springs? Do you still have stock shocks? Also how low do these springs drop your car? Sorry for all the questions... hehe

u just recently installed the tein s-techs and the ride quality is very close to stock...handling isnt too good because there kind of soft but as for ride quality there perfect...doesnt look to bad either..could've been a little lower but still noticable.

The ride on these springs is very good. I am still on my stock shocks and i didn't cut the bump stop. It lowered my car about 1.5in and i don't see any need for a camber kit.

you should get a camber kit just in case, just because you don't see you don't need a camber kit doesn't mean that you don't need one. does that make sense?

I have a 2001 civic coupe with B+G 1.6 inch drop springs... i had it aligned and they said the camber was perfect, no need for a kit... he's probably in the same boat...

actually no.... I need a camber kit now. I'm off by 1.7 deg on one side and 1.1 deg on the other side.
